Moving Tides and Falling Slides

I want to first apologize for promising a post and then not showing up,
Lately my life has just been non-stop and when it is idle for a moment its just that... I can't put words on paper, I can't form clearly logical sentences, stories run into each other, it just becomes one big mess. The amount of drafts on this thing might as well be balled up pieces of paper because no matter how long I stare at the thing nothing comes out of it.

In just about a month one of my very dear friends is getting married and by the honor vested in me she and her lovely fiance have asked that I be the one to Marry them... I imagine because of my way with words, and because she trusts me oh so much... Ohh Z I hope there's a curve you base this on, ha I kid I kid...

The amount of effort that goes into this is definitely beyond what I expected because you see, I'm sure nobody ever thinks they would forget how a wedding begins and ends right? I mean we see it every day, its like etched into our brains.... Well let me tell you... This one (this one right here, yea me) did. How do you forget "Dearly Beloved we are gathered here today" or maybe more importantly, I now pronounce you...
Well, I don't know how to explain it but I did and thankfully there is an instruction manual just in case geniuses like me forget, and now all is right with the world.

Would you believe I for some reason thought I had to do this by memory, like reading lines! OH HOLINESS did I freak myself out there for a while, see I don't know how well you may know me but public ANYTHING is not my strong suit... I hate being in front of people speaking or performing anything publicly ... strangers, fine... but friends or people I know... ohh it's worse than a hug to me and for those of you who know me.. well I need not explain that.

Thankfully, I have had this overwhelming calmness and excitement come over me all at the same time. Enough time has passed so that I was able to clear my mind and set all of the other things aside to focus on what's important and that is being the one to allow two of the most loving people in the world to share their love with each other for the rest of their lives.

So preparing a 45 minute ceremony is no easy task, especially when all of the ceremonies now are 15-20 minutes long... But when you have two people like these 2 its almost impossible to keep it under 45 minutes.

I will be posting more about this after the day has come to share my journey on this path and I must say so far it's looking to be a fun and fulfilling one.
Love has always been a driving force in my life, it's nice to have the chance to finally take it for a walk.

I promise I will be back with all of the juicy filled dramatic posts and my trials I faced in the past weeks, trust me I will have enough for weeks on end... But until then, I will be composing a ceremony that only true love can sing...

Until we Meet again...
