Elena and I mark 22 years together today. All those years ago, I was living in an apartment in the Willow Glen section of San Jose, California. Elena, you were living in a condominium in Buenos Aires. You had just had a relationship end. I had just had a relationship end. I was broken-hearted. I decided to pick myself up and try again. I got on the dating website Kiss.com. I encountered this attractive lady. Her picture had been taken in the obscure African country of Eswatini. I had visited the spot where the picture was taken. I did the compatibility test. We got 5 stars. This told me that you were, shall we say, "soul mate material." Everything looked good until I read the last sentence of your profile:
"I am looking for a man within 50
miles of Buenos Aires."
I was sitting 6,422 miles away. I
decided to take a giant chance. "I won the lottery!!!" Elena, you
have given me the best 22 years of my life. When some people had given up on me
and turned their back on me, you saw the good in me. You have always been a
very positive good influence on me. You have refused to accept anything less
than my very best! You are tough and can take hard times! You have a strong
good character.
