As it all started......(our story)

It all started really subtly quite a while ago!!!!!

This is our story..........................

Funke's Version

All i can say is it was just God that brought us together, it was a very strange/new environment and i was more than determined to be very focussed and to concentrate fully on my assignment at 'this place' I was told so many things before i went to 'this place' and i was more than prepared for anything that i could encounter......

Little did i know what God had in stock for me, i just walked around 'this place' with my bag and my folder everyday not paying any attention to the people or things around me....... (any ideas yet where 'this place' was?)

Anyway, this particular day, i was probably not ignoring the things and people around me as i usually did, i was standing in a queue when i saw this guy leaning against a light green Benz 200 staring in my direction, initially i thought nothing of it but later on i realised he was still staring so i thought to myself, i have been told about people like you and i was determined to give him a piece of my mind if he stepped in my direction. Well well i dont need to tell you the full story of what happened afterwards. It took some time for things to clear out as i was determined to focus on my assignment at 'this place'. Initially all his efforts to win my heart were just falling on the hardened parts of my heart until.......the rest is history(lol)

Days became weeks, weeks became months and months became years and here we are today its been nearly 8 blissful years we have been together and i dont regret one second. (with a big grin).

Any clues about 'the place'? keep wondering....

Tunde's Version

Sometimes God takes you through a route to empower you for the future.
it sometimes looks odd but if you follow God you will realise that you have passed through "this place " for a significant reason.

My version of our story...

my search for knowledge brought me "to this place"

it was a new environment and because I had a bit of experience I had no problems settling down.

I saw a young, dark, beautiful lady and I felt attracted to her. something in me told me she would be my wife. I chose to be careful about it.

I starred @ her long enough to catch her attention. I then went to her to ask for help. my motive was to check her eloquence, and register my person on her mind. Innocently she offered to help.

I was impressed she passed my test. I was further impressed when we got more friendly and I found her to be humble and homely.

I had to work hard and be persistent before I was able to win her heart.

It is about 8 years now and every time I reflect on this journey, my resolve is that I went through "this place" to meet with my better half (missing rib). I am grateful to God that I did not let the opportunity pass me by.
she is love to me personified. she is beautifully dark, with lovely dentition, God fearing, intelligent, homely, humble. words can not adequately express them all.
She has been my best friend for about 8 years now. I am sure you think I am lucky. I 'll say it was God's doing.
