There is a saying, “Destined to love you.”

Many things seem to be predetermined in the grand scheme of things—who you will meet in your life, who you will be with, and when you will get married, it’s all already destined.

Everyone’s life path is arranged by a higher power, many things are already predetermined, including when you will get married.

I have a friend who is a free spirit. Instead of joining a big company like other classmates after graduating from college, she started her own business.

Now, she is a travel blogger, earning a monthly income that rivals those of big corporations.

Initially, her family opposed her decision to start a business. They believed that as a girl, it was crucial to have a stable job. So, they unanimously disagreed with her choice.

Due to work-related conflicts at the beginning, she left her hometown in frustration and decided to work and strive elsewhere.

Over time, her parents understood her struggles outside, stopped opposing her career pursuit, and their attitude towards her changed significantly as her career flourished.

At 28, her parents were anxious about her marriage when she was 25. Relatives were constantly trying to set her up on blind dates, but she couldn’t find a boy she truly liked.

Her parents said she was too picky. They felt she was still running around outside at her age, while other uncles and aunts were already grandparents. In her parents’ eyes, she was just a “weirdo” who didn’t want to marry, but she knew that love shouldn’t be settled for.

If she couldn’t find a soulmate, she would rather face the boredom and triviality of life alone.

Ultimately, why don’t you want to get married? It’s because you haven’t met the right person. You don’t want to settle for love, nor spend a lifetime with someone uninteresting.

There is a saying, “Marriage is a walled city. Those inside want to get out, while those outside want to get in.”

Now thinking about it carefully, this saying makes sense. Marriage involves daily life matters. We shouldn’t marry just for the sake of it. Only by meeting the right person can we be together for a lifetime.

This year, she got married. On her wedding day, all our friends went to give their blessings. On that day, she said something that deeply resonated with me.

She said, “Before I turned 28, I never thought I would find true love. But when I met you, I felt the urge to get married. Maybe for us, the timing of our meeting wasn’t early, but our encounter was destined by a higher power. Meeting you is my greatest fortune.”

After saying this, she turned around, wiping away tears.

Later, hearing their love story, I found out that she and her husband met during a trip. They traveled together for a while because they both took the wrong path. During their conversations, they realized they got along well in every aspect, leading to further interactions.

They had a whirlwind romance, getting married in less than three months of knowing each other. Initially, when she told us this news, all our friends found it unbelievable. For her, who had high standards and strict requirements for love, getting married within three months was truly astonishing.

Previously, many hesitant guys pursued her, but she remained unmoved, even rejecting all suitors. Yet now, she swiftly married for love. Love’s power is indeed great.

Perhaps everything is predetermined, arranged by a higher power. In the past, we may not have had any expectations for love, but sometimes life surprises us. What is meant to happen will happen, and what is meant to be will come, so we must wait patiently for the arrival of love.

Love may be late, but it will never be absent.

So, you should wait because who you will marry has long been destined.

Everyone has a different attitude towards love, holding different views on it. We must always approach love with a calm mind. Love cannot be forced; happiness will naturally come when fate arrives.

Good love is also something that can be encountered but not demanded. When you find it, you should cherish it well. Don’t hurt those who truly love you, nor let emotional deceivers harm your feelings. Love is a luxury; when you have it, you must cherish it even more.

All encounters in the world are reunions after a long separation.

Every encounter in life is worth cherishing.

Fate should be embraced when possessed, as cherishing fate leads to gaining love.

As the Buddha said, “Five hundred looks back in the past life, in exchange for a passing encounter in this life.”

No matter who you meet, it is actually destined. Who you will marry has long been arranged by a higher power.
