It seems that reaching certain milestones causes me to reflect on the people I have met along the way . When it comes to this particular landmark achievement of reaching 90,000 posts I am once again drawn to thoughts of the love of my life ChantDownBabylon and that it was here on this very forum board that I made your acquaintance . The chain of events that led to our meeting is intriguing indeed starting of course with both of us playing the same video game that brought us to the same forum board and then the same subforum where our lives intertwined for a time .

I am always amazed when I think of it all coming together in the way that it did and I will never believe that it was mere happenstance .

My love for you has not lessened and my hopes and well wishes for you only increase as time passes .

All my love , as always , and forever
