We are MARRIED!
Monday, February 16, 2009
There's a wedding Saturday?
As we come closer to the point of no return, many people have asked me if I’m nervous about the wedding. I can honestly answer, yes, I am, but not because of the commitment I will be making to Ashley, but standing in front of two hundred and fifty people. I’m not a big fan of PDA, as Ashley can tell you, so I do not like being the center of attention; so, just make sure to watch Ashley the entire time. Not only will our guests get “dinner”, they also get a show!
However, I’m not nervous about marriage. The only stress comes from juggling schoolwork with the wedding and honeymoon. I’m perfectly at ease with the thought of Ashley being with me forever. To me, the dating, the engagement, and the wedding have all peacefully culminated together, as if by fate. I believe in both fate and free will guide our actions, and that is why I feel that Ash and I are meant for each other; we made the conscience effort to learn and love the other, while circumstance brought us together. Marriage is simply the next step. We are both blessed people, having both survived our minor trials thus far, so I have no question that we will continue to be blessed throughout our lives. Obviously, the biggest concern we have is with our future; where I will be with school, and where Ashley will be with her commitment to the hospital, but we’ll make the best of it together.
