Our Love Story
Ednel and Shara first met in September 2024. Though they lived miles apart—with Ednel in Pampanga and Shara in Marikina—the distance did not stop them from getting to know each other. What started as simple conversations slowly grew into a meaningful connection.On December 8, 2024, they officially became a couple, beginning a journey filled with love, patience, and countless memories.
Over time, they discovered that some of their best moments together happened on the road. Road trips became their favorite kind of date—driving together, exploring new places, talking about everything and nothing, and simply enjoying each other’s company. For them, it was never really about the destination, but about having time together and creating memories along the way.
Their love continued to grow as they learned to balance their relationship, careers, and the distance between them. They made every effort to be present for each other, proving that even with busy lives and miles apart, love can always find a way to make time.
By September 2025, Ednel knew in his heart that Shara was the one he wanted to spend his life with. He got down on one knee and asked Shara to be his forever—and she said yes.
From two people living miles apart to two hearts choosing to share the same future, their story is a reminder that love is not measured by distance and how long you've been together, but by the moments you choose to make together. And for Ednel and Shara, some of their most beautiful memories will always be found on the road, side by side, wherever life takes them.
1 Corinthians 13:7
“Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.”
