From: Shearyadi
To: Newcastle United FC

I don’t know if the love for a football/soccer team is fit on your criteria, but here I go.

My love for this little English Premier League team was started back in 1993, it was a truly love at first sight so I can not turn my back again and even I leave my old “lover” AC Milan for Newcastle United.

Now, my love for it never faded, in fact getting bigger and bigger everytime. I know that my love one now is suffering from bad managements for the last 10 years. I really hope that someday Newcastle can be a successful team but if it not going to happen, my love for it will never die.

Henry Van Dyke:
“Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity.”

From: MimB
To: ….

We are tearing ropes we don’t want to tear,
And your breath is still on me even though you are gone,
I still love you,
I love you more than ever
More than when I first met you and more than the last day we spent together.

Rabindranath Tagore:
“Only in love are unity and duality not in conflict.”

Write Your Love Story

Everyone has a story to tell. In fact, most people delight in sharing the little things that happen to them daily. But, when it comes to undertaking something such as actually writing their own love story, most people balk at the idea. So imagine the surprise your partner will feel when you’ve taken the time to record the very significant part of your lives on paper. For ideas and tips, read on…

Where To Start

First compile all relevant information such as:

Next, you’ll need to sort the information chronologically, from the first event.
It’s much easier to put the story together when you write about each event memory on an index card. For quick reference, highlight what the event/memory was, and the date it happened on the top. Then, in as much detail as memory allows, write about what happened, including all your senses such as touch, sight, smell, etc.

Once you have all the events memories written, and in order. Start writing your love story. It will be a fairly easy job if you’ve done the steps above.

Creative Ideas For Your Story

It’s one thing to sit down and write your love story, it’s quite another to take the time to put creative effort into it. Some ideas couples have done range from video taping the story with pictures, to creating their own professionally bound book with pictures. The possibilities are truly endless. To help you get started, here are a few ideas:

1. Tell the story in a fairy-tale format. Starting with, “Once upon a time…”
2. Create a puppet show with puppets to represent each of your characters. Save a copy of the play for your partner to read later.
3. Write your story in diary format. Get a blank journal and create entries for each of the days that are relevant for your love story.
4. Make a timeless treasure by writing your story in calligraphy on a heavy paper. Dip the pages in tea or burn the edges to give it an “old” look. Roll it up and tie a ribbon around it. You may want to give your partner a round tube so the letter doesn’t get ruined.
5. Create a love story scavenger hunt. Write parts of your story with clues to find the next section. This is especially fun if the clues are hidden in places relevant to your love story!
