WE FIRST MET BACK WHEN WE WERE 19 YEARS OLD. WE WERE TWO FREE SPIRITS CONSTANTLY ON THE MOVE. ENJOYING NIGHT LIFE IN THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES. FOR YEARS AFTER WE MET, WE WOULD CROSS PATHS FROM TIME TO TIME AND ENJOY EACH OTHERS COMPANY.

FINALLY ONE DAY OUR PATHS DECIDED NOT TO CROSS BUT THAT IT WAS TIME TO MERGE INTO ONE PATH. I WAS LIVING IN ARIZONA WHEN STEPHEN CAME TO VISIT ME AND OUR FRIENDSHIP QUICKLY BLOSSOMED INTO LOVE. WE WENT HIKING IN THE DESERT AND HAD OUR FIRST KISS UNDER THE VAST NIGHT SKY, SURROUNDED BY SHOOTING STARS AND THE CRY OF THE COYOTE. 

STEPHEN PROPOSED TO ME JUST OVER A YEAR LATER. WE WERE CAMPING AT LAKE ELSINORE ON A FULL MOON-LIT NIGHT. IN THE GLOW OF THE BONFIRE, HE GOT DOWN ON ONE KNEE AND GAVE ME A MOONSTONE RING. LEGEND HAS IT THAT IF YOU GIVE YOUR LOVED ONE A MOONSTONE DURING THE FULL MOON, YOUR SOULS WILL BE ENTWINED FOREVER.
