This is my swan song. In reverse.

What is romance? What is fate? I recently heard someone say, you had better make up your mind to marry. Because the right one will come along. And you need to be able to say yes. Otherwise you’ll lose him, and then the next one, and then the next one.

It threw my long-standing musing into relief: that many things have been built, shaped and remade in this world due to marriage. Something an individual could not do alone, was achieved due to their union with another.

I have found myself drawn to stories that ruminate on this beautiful phenomenon. I pour over them and swoon over how far people are willing to go, to put someone’s interest before their own. To foster intimacy on the heels of a tragedy. To travel miles and seek and find. To do impossible things for love.

Some call it romance.

But it’s fate.
