Dear Friends,

Recently, I was out with friends at a party and saw a man across the room. He was talking to some other people when he looked up and our eyes locked. What intrigued me was that there was some undefinable recognition, a connection, if you will. 

The place was noisy and crowded and there was a band playing. I did something I don't ordinarily do, I went up to him and coaxed him to dance with me, which he did willingly and he was a great dancer!  When the music stopped, I walked back to be with my friends. Later, I glanced around the room to see where he was and he was gone. I was terribly disappointed, but pushed it out of my mind and wrote it off to fate. 

No more than a half hour later, he tapped me on the shoulder and handed me a card with his telephone number on it and asked that I call him the next day so that he could take me out to lunch.  After much deliberation, and a torrential downpour that morning, I did not call.  It was a Friday and he stayed in my thoughts on and off all weekend. By Monday afternoon, I couldn't contain myself. I was on the telephone. 

We met the next day for lunch and I found him even more appealing and far more interesting than I had anticipated that I would. We both admitted to feeling the same magnetic attraction. Is it fate or is it kismet? What are we supposed to teach each other? Whatever it is will surely be revealed in time, I'm sure. Do you believe in destiny? Stay tuned.
