Inspirational stuff, so rare, yet miracles like these happen

Read this from a blog I follow, Malaysia-Finance. Sought out the article and you can read it here.

Just had to share this amazing story. Proof that life can always surprise you. Proof that to every1's troubles, there is a saviour.


Lovers meet at suicide

A HEARTBROKEN man planning to throw himself off a bridge found love — with a girl about to jump to her death from the same spot.

Devastated Andriej Ivanov, 26, wanted to end it all when his fiancée died in a car crash the day before they were due to get married.

But when he arrived at the bridge — in Ufa, central Russia — he found Maria Petrova climbing over the railings.

Maria, 21, had been thrown out by her parents for falling pregnant and was seconds from throwing herself more than 100ft into the icy Belaya River when Andriej rescued her.

He said: "Something in my heart snapped and I couldn't let her do it no matter how broken my own heart was.

"I shouted, 'Stop' and ran over to her. She fell into my arms sobbing and I began crying too.

"We held each other and talked, and talked and talked. That night saved my life - and hers."

The couple talked into the night and agreed to help each other mend their broken hearts.

Now they plan to get married after telling their families about how they met.

Maria said: "He is my knight and my saviour.

"All that pain was worthwhile because it led me to my Andriej."

Sometimes, when you think about it, what are the chances of you meeting "The One" at the bridge where you both planned to end your lives? At the point when both of you think there is nothing left in life to look forward to. And the moment where these 2 people meet. And suddenly everything changes. Things become positive, sun shines upon them.

Nothing in life is certain. It maybe gloomy right now and no sign of sunshine anytime soon. But you never know what might be just around the corner. Some1 could just be your saviour =)
And that is what we all look for. The person who will save us from our loneliness...



Boodyboy, out!!!
