Chronicles of Iridescence, Chapter 111: Wedding

Attended a great wedding today.

Weddings are sometimes and often noted for the extravagance, especially for people who are more well-off than most. Yet this one, despite it being modest, was equally, if not better, in terms of warmth and the feeling of happiness.

One of the most amazing things they can do, of course, is bring old faces back. People who you have never seen for a long time, and you suddenly realise how glad you are to see them, that there seems to be no end of topics to talk about and how much you miss/pine for them when the festivities end.

Another, of course, is that it brings out surprises. Had a very, very little surprise (perhaps to most people, it would seem that way). But for me, it was pleasant, and that alone is good enough.

While it may jolly well be because the mood of the event provided a possibly logical reason that the surprise came, it was still good. The surprise came, and that was enough.

Even if it doesn't happen again, of course, it was still enough.

It also got me thinking - All the friends, the 20-somethings who are single and unattached, or have are at least attached but not considering engagement yet...When will it be their most blissful day of their lives?

When that day comes, if they are my close friends, I want to be a part of the preparation and be there to see them happy and blissful.

------------------

Mine? It might take a while.

The concentration will be on self-improvement again, now that I've found my legs to stand resolutely at where I should be standing, THEN move quickly to be an even better man AND move swiftly but carefully enough to....You know, the thing guys do when they are serious about a relationship. Starts with a C, if you are still Confounded.

Anyway, that's that.

All the best and may you always be happy, Kelvin and Angel!
