A Luv Story That Started as Kids

Luv Stories of Maui Marital Bliss

Our story starts back in Virginia when we were kids.

We met because our dads were work friends.

Both of our families moved in separate directions,

Edgar’s to Florida when he was 6

and my family to Oregon when I was 7.

We both retained no memory of each other as we grew up.

At 18 we reconnected through a mutual friend,

re-learned of one another and became fast friends.

We kept our long-distance friendship with the help of social media

and went to visit each other once as a surprise for Edgar’s 21st birthday

and again in 2015 when Edgar came to visit me in Oregon.

His visit to come see me was one of the best vacations I’d ever had.

We explored the wonderful sites that Oregon has to offer,

and I helped Edgar fall in love with this beautiful state,

little did I know that he was also falling for me.

Edgar opened my eyes to the type of relationship I wanted

and had never had,

one where you stay up late talking and laugh til your crying

and sing in the car

without worrying about what the other person thinks

but just about having a good time and being yourself.

Edgar helped me see all the red flags I had in the relationship

I was in at the time

which quickly led to me ending that relationship a week after he left.

After Edgar returned back to Florida, he ended up letting me know that he liked me

and would move to Oregon for me.

He confessed that on the last night of his trip he had called a friend

confessing to them that he had feelings for me but was in a

predicament of me being in a relationship.

With all the fun we were having and all the conversations

he realized he was falling for me.

I had an attraction to Edgar from the first time we re-met,

we always got along great, the guy is a sweetheart and

he’s incredibly handsome, but when he told me he liked me

it came as such a shock.

 I learned that he’s had the same type of feelings in the past for me,

but it was never the right time.

He had been completely respectful of the current relationship I was in at the time of his visit that I didn’t expect him to say the words he did.

That month was a blur of me figuring out what I was going to say and do

when all along I knew the answer was that I was falling for him too.

We were committed to each other very quickly and from afar

Edgar made me feel like the most special girl in the world.

There was no lack of long-distance phone calls and video conversations

which in turn reassured Edgar he was making the right decision every day.

Each day I learned more of Edgar, the more I fell in love with him.

The love I felt for Edgar and from Edgar was unlike any other feeling I’d ever had.

I had a friend tell me during that time “when you know, you know.”

And I knew.

We saw each other once during Christmas,

our halfway point between the 5 months

that would pass before Edgar would be moving to Oregon.

During that weeklong vacation I learned how hard saying goodbye would be

and the thought of waiting 3+months felt like an eternity.

It took everything for me to focus on the planning process for our 10-day road trip

to move Edgar to Oregon.

Edgar picked up his life with no question of what may happen in our new relationship

with feelings so strong that he’d never felt before that he knew he wanted to take that

big leap of faith.

Now if anything would test a new relationship it would be a 10-day road trip.

Amazingly enough we conquered that road trip

(including me being incredibly sick during the first 3 days)

which lead to us conquering living together as a new couple.

 We’ve had our ups and downs as any other relationship would

but we have learned so much about each other in the last 3+years together

and have learned how to communicate through the hard times.

Edgar and I know that we would not and could not do life with anyone else.

We knew from the start that we were each other’s forever.

A Luv Story Blessing That Started as Kids

Everything that has happened…. Had to.

The ineffable series of coincidences of life

that led your fathers to work together briefly…

Allowing you two to cosmically bump into each other,

Too young to have any idea how your life’s Paths would come full circle

into the cradle of love set in motion from those first innocent days.

Sure, love can be found at a bar or online…

But when you have the ‘inside connection’,

A depth of resonance is felt from the Ground of our Being.

To connect at first with someone on a level of sincere empathy

for the pure interest in that person’s Being,

allows each other to see the whole person,

Instead of falling in love with ‘surface only’ aspects

inspired by too many drinks at a bar…

True Love is deeper than just surface only attractions,

The Heart is even deeper, and the Soul is ineffably deeper still…

You have found that communication is key to understanding…

It sounds simple, but yet our egos tend to make it a challenge.

Most of us are too hung up on our mistaken identity of our egos

to be humble enough to even listen to anyone else…

or even our own Inner voice of reason.

You have humbled your egos and Transcended into

the Natural Essence of Bliss – that is our True Nature.

Go with this flow… if it feels right… It was meant to be.

If you find you are ever sliding away from your natural Divine Bliss…

Take a deep breath and reconnect with the

Love, Joy, Compassion and Equanimity

that creates our Divine Flow.

Experience the perfection in every moment, do this together…

And you will both Abide in Eternal Maui Marital Bliss

😉

You knew from the start that you were each other’s forever.

You came to Maui, put your toes in the sand

and made it so… forevermore…& More!

The Start of 2020

Our business was doing great, but we still couldn’t afford to buy a house or a condo. Renting in Maui for another 30 years was not an option we wanted to take. Then, Bobbie Jo suggested we buy a sailboat that is comfortable to cruise and live in. By the end of January, we started looking for our new home.

After a long search, we found our dream boat in Mazatlan, Mexico. COVID-19 was not yet a concern when our boat hunt began, but masks were starting to appear at airports by the time we flew to Mazatlan. Originally, we had planned to get the boat ready as fast as possible to cover a full calendar for the busy wedding season. However, it was apparent our business was going to tank amid the pandemic, and the struggle went on until the end of the year.

Luckily, we scored an awesome condo for only $19 a day at Mazatlan. On the 10th day of our stay, we received the news that all harbors will be closed the next Monday morning. We thought we’d be stuck in Mexico longer, but another sailor advised us to leave before sunrise.

We felt the adrenalin of escaping the Mexican harbor master just before the sun rose that faithful day. The seas were rough as waves were building up in the tight channel that led us to the open ocean. We ended up anchored off an adorable little isle just a mile offshore. We enjoyed cruising to many spectacular anchorages and cute villages on our way to Puerto Vallarta, where we would depart for Maui on May 7. On May 30, 2020, we completed our 24-day passage from Mexico to Maui.
