13 Glorious years...and counting

This is a special day for me. On July 21st 1993 I had a turning point in my life, and the moment I have always dreamed of bacause in that great day I have met my sweetheart who became my lovely wife.
As a Master's degree student at the University of Jordan, faculty of Science I was busy with my Master's programme on environmental management, actively engaging in political initiatives in the University but my real enlightment and my most genuine heartbeat came when I saw her in the University where she was a BsC student in the same college. Struck by the beauty, I became then struck by the manners and behaviour after a month of "follow-up" and then I collected my courage and composure to talk to her. It was on July 21st in 1993 and it will always remain in my heart.
After knowing her I became struck by her heart, her mind and sweetness. We were the best of friends, talking in every subject of common interest, and after 3 years of friendship it was about time to take it to a higher level.
I knew I loved her, and I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her. I told her and waited, anxiously for one month to get my answer back. Yes was it and it was my second birthday.
Our efforts to get married were not easy, both financially and socially but with real love and determination we made it through and got married in October 9th 1999.
To my beautifual wife and love of my like, Seham.. I dedicate this post.
This is a photo of me and Seham in my graduation day in July 1996, exactly 10 years ago.
