Keith has been my best friend since I moved to Ridgedale in 7th grade. He'll probably always be my best friend, but it's going to be weird seeing him getting married. It doesn't seem like we should be at this stage in our lives yet...it seems like yesterday we were playing high school sports and acting like idiots. Oh wait, we probably we acting like idiots yesterday, but the sports was like 6 years ago...geesh, that seems like a long time. I'm getting old.
Tonight is the rehearsel dinner, so that should be fun too. It's a chance to see some people I don't see all that much, plus we get a nice dinner out of it. Can't beat that.
Well, congratulations to Sam and Keith. I've been around you two since the very beginning of your relationship, and I've watched the two of you fall in love. It is actually quite an inspiring thing, and you relationship gives hope to everyone who hasn't found love yet. I hope I can you what the two of you have one day...I think I'm well on my way :-) Enjoy your day, and have fun on your honeymoon!!! I'm honored that you asked me to be a part of your special day.
"Remember tonight, for it is the beginning of always.
A promise. Like a reward for persisting through life so long alone. The belief in each other and the possibility of love.
A decision. To ignore or simply rise above the pain of the past.
A covenant. Which at once bind two souls and yet severs prior ties.
A celebration. Of the chance taken and the challenge that lies ahead. For two will always be stronger than one, like a team braced against the tempest of the world.
And love - will always be the guiding force in our lives.
For tonight is mere formality.
Only an announcement to the world of feelings long held, promises made long ago in the sacred space of our hearts."
