My dearest Popol,

We would have been together three years today! I was so sure we'd make it, certain we'd go the distance.

I guess in a way I took it for granted. Three years doesn't seem all that long compared to a lifetime. Maybe that's why God rendered us apart for a while, so we'll realise that we need to work hard to be together, in order not to fall into complacency.

Sometimes it feels like time has passed us by so quickly, yet sometimes, too, it feels like we've know each other for so long.

Today passed unspoken and unacknowledged by us. I didn't want to, but I was afraid drawing attention to it would not have been a good idea. Just as it could have brought joy because it is, after all, our anniversary somehow, it could just as easily have broken the spell - we were doing alright over dinner (well, your dinner), and I just don't want to (possibly) ruin the rest of tonight.

I am content in celebrating this day silently, as long as it is with you. Happy Anniversary, baby.

Love,

Tya_
