Complete??
Been down in the doldrums for a while until recently, so did not feel as inclined to update my blog. There was a MAJOR issue bugging me for a long while, and I had to struggle with it a lot. As much as I know the 'right' thing to do, I didn't want it to be something I did out of doctrination, but rather out of personal conviction. So for the longest time ever, I did not want to face the dreary prospects. But I finally did, and am convicted now, so it's for the best.
Why is this post titled 'Complete'? Hmm, it's the name of a worship song I personally quite like, and this was the song chosen by a couple who are my good friends for their wedding over the weekend. The build-up to the wedding was a fluster and flurry of activities......but on the actual day itself, to see my friend the bride walk down the aisle looking resplendent in her floral applique wedding gown, and the look of happiness on my friend the groom's face....everything was worth it. Priceless. I was quite wound up over it, cos I was afraid I would oversleep on the day itself, so I had actually trained my body clock to wake up at 6.30 am every morning 1.5 weeks before the wedding. So now I am trying to wind it down to the more 'humane' hour of 7.45 am on weekdays for work - a task I am trying to succeed in.
Being the best man to the groom was an utterly memorable experience. To actually play a role in the wedding of 2 of my good friends is something I truly cherish. Admittedly there were some little kinks here and there that had to be ironed out, but everything went rather smoothly. Of course, there were the moments of laughter too, when the bride's 'sisters' made the groom's 'brothers' play some games and all....the sheer 'humiliation' of it all. But hey, all in the name of good fun. And to know that the bride has a demure side to her that we all seldom see, that kinda takes the cake (*pssst* all you people out there who know the bride, don't tell her I said this...she'll so kill me).
