Tis is the time for wedding bells

Quite obviously, from my title, you would expect something to do with marriage: the coming together of 2 people, one man and one woman, in sacred matrimony, ready to embark on the rest of their lives together not as separate entitles, but as one embodied individual (sorry, I got carried away).

Marriage is a beautiful and touching event. Even if you do not know the couple, as elaborately as they are dressed, who are getting married, you would still smile and send your blessings to them as you pass by. You feel happy, elated for the couple, that they are able to find the significant other of their lives, and hope that their decisions remain correct for the rest of their lives. The coming of the end of year 2007 saw quite a few of such events from some of my friends and colleagues. Perhaps it is a good time, coinciding with the periods of leave which one can take to go on honeymoon sessions, or the fact that year-end bonuses come in handy in December. Regardless of the dates though, marriages are joyous events meant for the celebration of a couple’s love, the reaffirmation of already married couples’ vows, the transition of responsibilities from daughter to wife, or son to husband.

To all my friends who are tying the knot soon or who are just married, may you find eternal bliss in the choice you have made and may love encircle your life everyday. To my own significant other half, may we budget and plan a beautiful one in the near future so that it can leave an everlasting impression in our minds.
