Our story has shown to me that you cannot connect the dots of your life looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards.

It’s extraordinary to me that we grew up in neighboring towns in New Jersey and spent our whole lives orbiting around each other but never meeting. That is, until 2019. We met for a coffee on a late Spring day and while I found her to be captivating, we only went on one date and lost touch afterwards. Maybe the timing wasn’t right? Who knows. But for those who know me, you’d know that I’m never good at things on the first attempt. It always takes me a few tries and a lot of practice to get it right!

As the years passed, she never left my mind (or my cell phone, I kept her number in it all those years). I thought of her often. One fine day, I finally summoned the courage to reach out. When we reconnected, Kiran was beautiful, intelligent, kind, and enchanting, just as I’d remembered. After our “second first date”, I had this feeling that my life was going to be different going forward.

I know that our love is special because with each day that goes by, I grow to admire and love her more. She has added dimensions to my life that I never could have dreamed about. I also instinctively knew she was “it” early in our courtship when she challenged me to a game of 1-on-1 basketball and she showed off a pretty nice jumper!

I’m beyond excited to marry her and walk together through life with her by my side. With Kiran, it finally feels like the dots of my life have connected and it all makes sense.

Now it’s time to celebrate!!
