Destined for Anything.
One of my dearest friends is getting married, and I could not be more thrilled for him.
We have known each other for over a decade,
and throughout that time we have seen the best and worsts of ourselves.
It is strange though, to feel so much joy for someone.
While simultaneously realizing a self proclaimed sense of misery.
That wanting and looking only drive the result further from reality.
Seeing their love only drives my profound sorrow.
Knowing that I don't even feel the strength to put myself out there.
Waiting to get hurt.
/////////////////////////////////////
But cynical self-centered bullshit aside, it is truly a great thing for both of them.
And I an lucky enough to be a best man, which is something I have never been.
We are all headed up to Tahoe this weekend to see what kind of trouble we can get in.
And knowing him for the last decade, I'm sure we will find it one way or another.
