Forever & Almost Always

This is the continuation of the short story "Once Found, Now Forgotten." I recommend reading that first. You don't necessarily have to, but I would anyways.

There's a funny way that a series of random events can conspire to lead to something great. It usually happens without you even noticing and you usually can't even figure out what's actually happened to get to where you are now until you lay out all of the events that have happened in front of you. Only then can you really realize how lucky you really were.
