The Magical Oia Sunset

 

The Oia Sunset in Santorini, Greece

 

 

They say that you've never seen a real sunset until you see one in Oia. (pronounced Eya)

 

 

Sitting by the café, I couldn't help but appreciate how beautiful you looked against the sunset. Was it the colors against your skin or that magical moment where everything radiates with the glowing sun? Oia is beautiful and I cannot imagine spending this moment with anyone else besides you. We made a promise to grow old together and reminisce our lost youth, hand in hand at this same café in 30 years.

 

Sipping our coffee, we spoke of the day we met and how everything changed from that moment forth. The Aegean air must have tingled with romance as we serenaded and danced in the embrace of each other. That very moment, it seemed, the clock had stopped and the world was just the both of us. There was nothing else more important that enjoying that precious moment with you.   

 

I cannot describe how much it meant to me that you were here with me. That you flew more than 24 hours alone, transited over 3 flights (Airport Strike, yet again!) and across 3 different continents! Thank you for being here, with me, to indulge and reignite what had always been so strongly shared between the both of us.

 

Gazing into your eyes, I couldn't help but be reminded that despite our work and very large family commitments, nothing is more important to me than YOU. It is clear that you are the reason I live each day. I hold true to the belief that behind every successful man is a woman.

 

Let us remember this day till the day we die. The magic of the Oia Sunset is not a myth. It is by far the most romantic sunset that we had ever seen. I will do all I can to honor the promise I made to you today. Let us grow old together and revisit this magical moment in 30 years! 

 

I dedicate this post to the most beautiful and magical person to have ever touched my life...My Wife.

 

For without you, my world will cease to exist.
