Turning One

Today, the wife in me turns one. Oh yeah, it has been a year since the above magical moment. Although it did not feel like a marriage since we have been together for almost three years now. No surprises, no shocks. Only love and more love. Like I have said a million times before, falling in love is not important, staying in love is.

As you are reading this post, we are busy exploring the by lanes of Delhi and soaking in the beauty of the Taj Mahal. Cal's second visit and my first. Its so funny that every trip that I planned before I met Cal, never materialised. All my dream vacations are with him. Wow destiny, you rock! We were related, yet we never met during our growing up days. We did meet other occasionally during some family functions, but only exchanged a smile or a couple of words. And today, we are standing here as husband and wife. Wow, the magic of love and the miracles of destiny. Like they say, if it is meant to be; it is meant to be.

Below are a few quotes from my personal collection. Today seems to be the perfect day for sharing it. More on the trip, when I return.
