Good Luck, Guilty!

My dear blog friend, Guilty Secret, is walking down that aisle tomorrow in a country across the world from me.  I've been following her journey for quite some time now, and can't wait to hear all the details of how her adorable, sparkler-themed wedding comes together.  Isn't the blogosphere a crazy place?  One where we fall in love with friends whom we'll possibly never meet, and in this case, whose real name I don't even know.  But those specifics all fade away in light of her beautifully honest writing, eloquently british humor, and thoughtful, earnest love.

Have a blast, my girl.  You've come so far, and the journey is only beginning!  Just remember to breathe.

I wanted to share this blessing with you today, courtesy of the Apache Indians.

Now you will feel no rain, For each of you will be shelter to the other. 
Now you will feel no cold, For each of you will be warmth to the other. 
Now there is no more loneliness, For each of you will be companion to the other. 
Now you are two bodies, But there is one life before you. 
Go now to your dwelling place, To enter into the days of your togetherness. 
And may your days be good and long upon the earth.

Thank you so much! I feel like you just did a virtual reading at my virtual pre-wedding after reading that.

And what lovely things you said about me too!

The blogosphere truly is a crazy place. It's amazing how you can come to feel so close to people so far away. But it's a wonderful thing. I love it! This journey wouldn't have been the same without my blog friends. Thank you :)

Beautifully said, Ms. Meatball, (as usual!). That marriage blessing is one of the prettiest, most meaningful ones I've ever read--thanks for sharing...and Guilty..congratulations! Happy marriage day!
