Ok ok. I’ve been a little slack on the posting every day thing. No excuses. Onwards.
This last weekend I was at a wedding and I’m beginning to get good at these things now. I reckon that within the next few I will actually start to get round to buying gifts and cards before the wedding. Also - with my recent enthusiasm for dancing (ceroc and otherwise), I’m really rather enjoying the whole reception experience.
This particular wedding was beautiful because I’ve known the groom for the whole nine years of his relationship and, frankly, it’s a relationship that inspires me. It was also beautiful because the day fell into March’s gorgeously sunny week; both the church and reception venue were staggeringly beautiful and I saw loads of people I haven’t seen for so long it’s embarrassing. But that gap in the time we’d seen each other revealed something very important. We get on very very well. All of us had grown up, our conversation was more mature, but at the core was the dynamic that existed from years back. All weekend I felt like we’d never meant to have been apart. Like we never really had been apart. I very much hope that there will be more contact going forward.
As for the bride and groom - I pray for a blessing of shalom in their marriage, friendship and family. As they set out on a newly defined path I pray they find more of each other and that every aspect of their world continues to be enriched by their existence, relationship and passions.
