Before I explain this amazing story, I need to tell you that this day, this moment in time that I am writing this to you, had everything to do with William and Melissa and my one true love. Before I go into that, I must first tell you about who I am and why this story must be told. I must tell you why there are still some of us out there. When I say some of us, I mean myself and a few others, maybe 22 at the most, and maybe even you; on a planet with billions, we are indeed very few.

For some of us, it rings true deep in our soul just by hearing about it.
