“We were meant to be.And that is how my destiny was changed forever.”

“That was the moment my destiny was changed forever...”

“It was the storm that would forever change the course of human destiny.”

“How strange that the nature of life is change, yet the nature of human beings is to resist change. And how ironic that the difficult times we fear might ruin us are the very ones that can break us open and help us blossom into who we were meant to be.”

“Of course it hurt that we could never love each other in a physical way. We would have been far more happy if we had. But that was like the tides, the change of seasons--something immutable, an immovable destiny we could never alter. No matter how cleverly we might shelter it, our delicate friendship wasn't going to last forever. We were bound to reach a dead end. That was painfully clear.”

“They spoke of destiny and how sometimes we were chosen to do things that others were to weak to do.”
