My heart goes out to those in relationships that frequently use the words:  "long distance", "flights", "airplanes", and "timezones".  My heart also goes out to those who are dog people, but that's a completely different mood for a completely different conversation. Neha and Jits first crossed paths in New York City - a romantic autumn business trip encounter.  Since that meeting, they've put in boatloads of effort toward overcoming a pretty large obstacle that separated them - the ocean.  With Neha in the States and Jits in London, both agree: "As they say some things are worth the effort...

Six married men stood up at the Cruiseport Gloucester in front of hundreds of guests and told stories about Peter's solid family-values and how the two of them, down to the core, are perfect for each other.  The groomsmen laughed about Peter's funny memory, like when he insisted her name was Kirsten, but then ended up calling her Christian.  They smiled warmly about how out of this tight knit group of six highschool friends, that he was the last to get married and then man-giggled about how their future kids could all play together.  These are the same six groomsmen who teared up at...
