To my tesoro who made love feel like home this story breathes because of you. Some stories aren't written to be understood by everyone - only by the one who feels the echoes between the lines. Because No Matter How It Began, It Was Always You is a quiet collection of moments, thoughts, and gentle reflections. It isn't dramatic, or loud, or meant to reveal anything to the world. It is simply an unfolding of soft emotions, the kind that stay unspoken but warm. These pages gather the little things the calmness someone brings, the way small gestures linger, the comfort found in a presence that feels steady without trying. It's a story about gratitude, warmth, and the kind of connection that grows in quiet ways. Not a confession. Not an explanation. Just a tender corner of the heart, written softly enough that only the right person will understand. For everyone else, it's just a book. For the one it was meant for , it's a feeling.
