In May 2014, I decided to quit the job that had run through my veins for so long and I loved so much. Up until a few months before, I still woke up every day thankful I had landed the role I wanted more than anything. I had worked my way up from grassroots level and knew the ins and outs of the job. This was necessary if I was to be successful. I felt I had to be effective not just for myself, but also for the divisional manager, who had believed in me and given me my chance. My work ethic had been instilled in me from a little girl, coming from a family of six girls, four of which were older than me. They along with our parents had shown me what you can achieve from working hard, but my hunger to succeed started at an early age. From as far back as I can remember, I didn’t take losing very well, so more often than not, I studied and practiced every game we played, giving me that edge all the time, ensuring I won most of the time, and this still continues today.

Literature and history are filled with epic, romantic love stories Antony and Cleopatra, Napoleon and Josephine, Lancelot and Guinevere, Romeo and Juliet, Orpheus and Eurydice but who has experienced or witnessed a real-life love story? As François de La Rochefoucauld has written, True love is like ghosts, which everyone talks about and few have seen. It is exceptionally rare, and A Love Story is a book bursting with passion that describes a remarkable union of two souls, whose single powerful flame inspired everyone they touched. It is a radiant source of inspiration that describes how two lovers met and inspired each other forever. The story is told through a rich tapestry of luscious poetry and anecdote. If everyone lived their lives this way, the divorce courts would be empty and world peace would prevail.
