"Katherine, I honestly thought that was the end of the story. I wrote that as the end of the story. But, my story began afresh when I met you."
"You see, I fell in love early. I married early. I had a child early. But, let me tell you this, I do not regret any of it. No, none of it. I am happy."
"However,
"I love you, I really do". She said looking deep into my eyes.
It was then that it hit me,
'BEING YOU is to follow your heart even when you have doubts.
It's to listen to your gut even when others do not believe you can.
It's to be silly and weird even when others don't understand.
Being yourself is meeting yourself in your own skin and saying –
"You know what? This is who I am."
It's about staying true to who you are and following your heart over anything else.
It's about finding peace within your skin and love within your soul.
It's about being kind to yourself and honest about both of your strength and weakness.
Because at the end of the day, if you aren't being yourself then who are you being?'
I did not have to think about it even for a second more, I said it, “I love you too, Paige. I do love you”.
So, there you have it. There, I told it. I told the story. The story of how I discovered myself. The story of how I met the love of my life, who by the way I later married and we had two beautiful children together, with Asher as the sperm donor. A beautiful girl and a handsome little boy. Mckayla Junior was never lonely as she had two siblings who adored her and two mothers and a dad - Asher who all loved her to bits.
