As days turned into weeks, I felt an increasing sense of urgency. The more time we spent together, the stronger my feelings grew, and the more I wanted to share them. I worried that if I waited too long, I might miss my opportunity or that someone else might come along and capture their heart.
I also considered the current circumstances, such as the ongoing pandemic, which made me realize that life was short and unpredictable . The thought of waiting another 15 years to express my feelings seemed unbearable. I began to ask myself how I wanted to spend the next chapter of my life – together or apart .
As I weighed my options, I realized that love required three essential elements: courage, a leap of faith, and hard work. I knew that if I wanted a chance at success, I needed to find the strength to try, to act, and to confess. After all, how could I expect to succeed if I didn't even try?
