Is it just me, or have you noticed that everyone and their momma is getting married these days? Engagement rings are being thrown around like play toys. Every Saturday from the beginning of August until the end of October is clouded with another friend's wedding. I mean I'm ecstatic for the happy couples, but I'll be honest, occasionally the "why isn't it me" mentality takes over. Like many of you I've been planning my wedding since I was 8 1/2 years old. When will my dreams become a freakin' reality? In all of the selfishness, I must remind myself (and you too) that thou shalt not hate. In fact, remember these words to get you through those times when you're feeling green with envy:
To everything there is a season,a time for every purpose under the sun.A time to be born and a time to die;a time to plant and a time to pluck up that which is planted;a time to kill and a time to heal ...a time to weep and a time to laugh;a time to mourn and a time to dance ...a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing;a time to lose and a time to seek;a time to rend and a time to sew;a time to keep silent and a time to speak;a time to love and a time to hate;a time for war and a time for peace.
ecclesiastes 3:1-8
Don't worry my dears....our time will come. Until then hit up those registries, rehearsals, and receptions with a smile on your face and pure joy in your heart for the brides and grooms to be.
Cheers!
