"We met each other when we were young, before we knew enough about disappointment, and once we did we found we reminded each other of it."

Imagine two young souls coming together in the innocence of youth, unaware of the harsh realities that life has in store. They meet with hearts full of hope and dreams, eager to explore the world hand in hand.

As time passes and life's challenges unfold, they begin to experience disappointment and setbacks. The once bright-eyed optimism starts to fade, replaced by a sense of disillusionment and sadness.

It is in these moments of vulnerability that they turn to each other, seeking solace and understanding. They see their own struggles reflected in the eyes of their companion, finding comfort in the shared experience of disappointment.

Through their connection, they are reminded that they are not alone in their pain. They find strength in each other's presence, knowing that they can weather any storm as long as they have each other by their side.

Their bond deepens as they navigate the ups and downs of life together, drawing strength from their shared experiences of disappointment. They learn to lean on each other for support, finding solace in the understanding gaze of their companion.

Despite the hardships they face, they find a sense of peace in knowing that they have someone who truly understands them. They find beauty in the way their struggles have brought them closer together, forging a bond that is unbreakable.

As they look back on their journey, they realize that their meeting in youth was no coincidence. It was a fateful encounter that would shape their lives in ways they could never have imagined.

And so, they continue to walk hand in hand, facing each new disappointment with courage and resilience, knowing that they have a companion who will always be there to remind them that they are not alone.
