wedding

it's not about the dress. or the veil. or the flowers. or the food. but it has felt about those things. is my dress good enough? will I look good enough? will any of this be good enough?

but it's not about any of those things. it's about him. its about me and loren. committing to each other. loving one another. holding each other during the good and the bad. being there for one another and with each other no matter what. committing to each other. committing to grow together, to learn with and from one another. to be rooted so deeply with one another that challenges may rustle our branches but we are unshakable.  the wind may blow against us, only to make us stronger and more resilient. That is us. That is what this is about. Our wedding, is about us. and everything else that is there - the dress, the food, the music... even the people. that is all just a gift. I am blessed to have a family so supportive, emotionally and financially. I am so blessed to be given all of these gifts. it's all a gift. A gift to celebrate us.

May I remember to remember what this is all about.  When my mind focuses on a particular detail or worry,  May I remember to give gratitude. May I only focus on the real gift  -the man that I am choosing to marry.
