This evening, I came across THIS FANTASTIC WEBSITE that featured five of their favourite true love stories that had been published previously.
I read each one of them slowly and am still teary...so deeply moved and awed by the love shared by these wonderful persons.
Read about:
Couple Torn Apart By War Reunited Decades Later - This true love story is one of the greatest story of enduring love and my personal favourite!
Coral Rock Castle: The House that Heartbreak Built After getting dumped at the altar, Ed Leedskalnin devoted the rest of his life to building a giant rock monument for his lost love. The weirdest part? He built it with no assistance, even though many of the rocks weigh 30 tons.
Man Proposes to Girlfriend in Video Game - Bernie Peng knew his girlfriend loved video games - so he rigged up a special proposal she was sure to say yes to.
Couple Married for 75 Years Pass Away on the Same Day
The wedding vows say “til death do us part.” But that wasn’t good enough for J.C. and Josie Cox.
Couple Celebrates 50 Years of Once-Forbidden Love
While most young couples held hands on the streets, Laurence and Lena Nelson were forced to hide their relationship. In an era of segregation and blatant racism, it was a dangerous time for an interracial couple to be in love. But for Laurence and Lena, it was worth the risk.
Thank you, Gimundo, for inspiring us to be more than who we are when we love.
Please CLICK HERE to read those five wonderful love stories. You will not be disappointed!!!
Happy Valentine's Day!
P.S. Yes, I know I am a hopelessly romantic sentimental old character :-).

Tiger Let me share my own love story.
Met her when my friends said,"You have to see this girl. She's really cun lah".
And I was thinking,"wah, what's the big deal?"
Then we met.
After speaking to her for the first time, I turned to my best friend and said,"Simon, I'm going to marry that girl".
18 months later we were married!

Check it out if you have time.
I am a die-hard romantic sentimentalist - influence of all the fairy tale romances I grew up with haha...But really, I believe in true love and that can only happen with ONE PERSON in the entire universe.
:-)
Take care and have a wonderful Valentine's Day!
Cheers

Unknown Dear Tiger

modernlifeisrubbish Dear MWS,
Thank you for sharing such wonderful stories of love.
The story of Anna and Boris makes me believe again that there is such a thing as a soulmate. Walla's comment in your previous post "A Valentine's Day Story" resonate with my thoughts exactly. That all of us have another half that is made for us. It is only time that separates us from the other, and we will definitely meet him/her in our life.
i had once read the story about Edward Leedskalnin and his Coral Castle. HIs love story aside, he was quoted saying he knew about the secret of pyramid building of the ancient Egyptians and South American civilizations using only primitive tools. Very fascinating indeed!
