An everlasting story of love

One night, at a party that her parents would frequently visit on Friday’s - a car full of boys pulled over. “I noticed him right away and he sat across from me...but we just stared at each other”, said a wife that still loves her husband after so many years of marriage.

In their story, Jim – who got to marry the love of his life, mentions how one night he walked his girlfriend all the way to her house, missing his ride. Sadly, he lived 8 miles away and had to walk back home. Soon after, Jim’s father noticed that his son would walk 16 miles every Friday. One day, he asked his little boy if he thought his girlfriend felt the same way about him.

As time passed, Jim got very sick and couldn’t visit his girlfriend. Suddenly someone knocked on the door and as his mother tells him, “you’ve got company” – his father murmurs, “she walks”. This small action of walking 8 miles to see him, proved that she loved Jim just as much.

Love is meant to be

When love truly comes from the heart, saying I love you or showing thoughts of kindness happens without being provoked. Perhaps, it may be that you haven’t found your Jim, but good things take time. Love is not something that you look for, instead it comes to you when you least expect it. It doesn’t matter if you’re 50 or 60 and never met your prince charming. What is meant to be will find its way to you without moving a finger.

Jim and his wife, prove that love could overcome anything. With cars and the use of cameras in our smart phones, it becomes easier to see the person we love. But, would you walk 16 miles for the person you love?
