Dear Damian and Diana
If d is added to d,we have 2d but this is not algebra, this is a day where two people have chosen to become one so I write to one person in church speak
I therefore write to you not as two but one because you have made vows before the Lord to hold and to love and therefore you are one. Let me break down the letter to the two who are now one . Genesis 2:24 is instructive, “Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.” NIV version says, That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.
Dear Damian,
Friendship is everything. Friendship is more than talent. It is more than the government. It is almost the equal of family.- Don Corleone” ― Mario Puzo, The Godfather . Friends are the relatives we make outside our blood relations and Diana is a sister to me, our friendship began many years ago at Ibanda Town School, well Diana is brilliant and not hard to forget she was always in the top three positions,I recall her sister Rachel and uncle Grace.We later reconnected during our post graduation days and have a group of three amazing people that I can safely describe as they best exports from Ibanda. Our love for books and movies birthed the group, The Three Musketeers.
When life turned upside down a few years ago,it was Diana and Grace that came to check on me and these remain my dear supportive buddies. Diana is a good person and in her you have found a gem.
Dear Diana,
What can I say/write, the irony is that there isn’t much to say rather than to wish you happiness and the Lord’s blessing in your journey, May Damian be your anchor in life’s oceans and together, may you keep as best of friends. You deserve the best and today is such a day, how about you think more about that construction arbitration course that you put on hold this year for next year I will be available with my time, that is perhaps the best thing I can give you so count on me for any consultation , let us call it a gift.
