We met on Discord through music, and what started as conversations about songs slowly turned into something deeper. We began talking about life, feelings, and ourselves, and somewhere along the way, it stopped being just friendship and became love. Later we discovered a cute coincidence.. his mom already knew my brother from medical school. It all felt like our worlds were meant to connect.

Our favorite memory is our engagement. Miracle spent weeks searching for the perfect ring, and when it arrived in the wrong color, he was heartbroken because he wanted everything to be perfect. Instead of hiding it, he trusted me enough to be honest. I loved it the moment I saw it, and his relief said everything. That day reminded us that love isn't about perfection, it's about honesty, trust, and choosing each other through every unexpected moment.

We would invest $5,000 in long-term savings and set aside $4,000 as an emergency fund to help secure our future. We'd put $5,000 toward a dependable car so I can commute to my medical school clinical rotations, and $4,000 toward the honeymoon we had to postpone after our wedding due. Finally, we'd use the remaining to buy meaningful gifts for our families as a small way to thank them for their unwavering love and support.
