My cousin Eric's wedding
So this past weekend I went to my cousin Eric's wedding in Wisconsin. I had a blast. It was the best wedding that I've been to since my brother's wedding in 2002. :o)
But while I was at the reception I couldn't help but think.... what do they have to look forward to now that they are married. They have been dating for about 3 years if not more. And they have been living with together for 2 years. Therefore, the only difference is that they share the same last name, they will be making decisions as man and wife, and they can begin having a family (not including their dog). I compared the worlds views on things with Christian views.
I also thought about the day that I will get married... I am wondering if I am really ready for a commitment like that. I am also wondering if I am afraid of commitment. I don't know. I know that I am not ready for children yet... but am i ready for marriage? I don't know. Not this year.... and probably not next (even though I was really looking forward to getting married on 06-07-08 ... because of the date). But whatever. I'll find something that'll work whenever that day comes. But it's not about the date... it's about the one that I will be spending the rest of my life with. What a lucky man he'll be! ;-)
