This weekend I witnessed (literally, more on that in a moment) a momentous occasion. It has been a long time coming and I was glad to be there to witness it. So I had to do a post in tribute.
As I said in my Best Man Toast, I remember the first time seeing both Slinks and HalfBreedMom. After all these years they are two of my closest friends. I was proud to participate in the day of their marriage (even though it was long as hell and annoying at moments :P). I love love and all of the joy and beauty it brings. And to see where their love is today, after all of the stuff they have been through. I was honoured when Slinks asked me to be his Best Man, and I was happy to help make their day special. The ceremony was small but beautiful, and the reception was better than I could ever imagine. And the fact that this wedding came together in the span of 2 months was nothing short of a miracle. I hope that one day I can find love and have such a beautiful day like they did.
Quite a few times over the past few years I've been at a wedding and had this surreal moment realizing that this person, who is one of my best friends, or someone I have known for the majority of my life, is getting married. Its that time of my life when every year there is another one to attend. I'm happy to see my friends, people that I consider a part of my family find happiness. I want the best for them and I could not wish for more for them.
Slinks and HalfBreedMom: I love you both so much, and I wish you all the best now and for the years to come.
