weepy at weddings

just attended another nice wedding. last week it was the renewal of vows of a 50-yr marriage. this week was the more typical wedding of two beautiful souls. i got teary-eyed in both occasions.

during the march, particularly the bridal procession. then there's the exchange of vows. my eyes well up.

im suddenly wishing i could have a wedding of my own. i could have a ceremony where i declare to my creator, to one and all my love for this person, in sickness and in health, for better or for worse, for richer and for poorer...

id like to see my family, his family, our friends all around cheering us, happy for us, wishing us the best, praying for our relationship.

in the background, strings play a solemn canon by pachelbel. im looking at his eyes and seeing so much love.

fantasy sequence ends here. for one, i dont even have a partner. for two (hehe), it aint legal, hell, our love is considered a sin! i guess im just your average sappy plu, hopelessly romantic, still living in that fantasy world where two men fall in love, get married and live happily ever after.

maybe i well up precisely because i can't ever have this. i can never turn this fantasy into reality. especially since i really have nobody to call my own.

well, it can be a private engagement and have a symbolic taking of vows. :P

Whoever said that one needs the church or the government to be there to witness two persons, in front of people who are important to them, that they love each other. :D

I actually have a great story about this that I will tell you when we meet. :D

My grandfather used to have a saying: "Esposas, posas."

But hell, different strokes.

I have a friend who cried at a wedding. His beau's. To a girl. Where he stood as Best Man. And the girl knew. But that's best left for another day.

CC ive been a secret follower of you, your thoughts and what-nots....and finally i have this chance to speak my thoughts on you being an average sappy plu, hopelessly romantic....damn....your right and im happy that you are..coz if you'd feel differently i wouldn't be happy, otherwise you'll just be one of those jaded, emotionless pricks... i am happy that you are sappy...i still believe in serendipity and i hope that you still do...and remember loving is always a choice..it starts with a feeling but it will last because it is our CHOICE!

lovyah and your blog...
