This day…
the first day we spent in Oahu in 2006 is but a distant memory, but as I popped the CD of photos into my laptop they came rushing back to me. An overcast day, a windy day, a day of exploring the island with myDarlin’Robert Kenui Pope. As the photographs take me from the ocean to the city to the majestic mountains, I remember how I felt listening to him tell stories of days gone by, and wonder why he or anyone for that matter would ever leave this paradise.
And then I realized that destiny is the undertow of our lives, and that it was the calling of what was yet to be – the meeting and joining of our hearts in a land far from his native home.
Today I am grateful for the day in this photograph, as well as those spent with myDarlin’ before and after as I turn through the pages of our lives.
