StoryPeople

In college, a room mate of mine, Rachel M., loved this website, Storypeople. I would visit it from time to time reading things that made my heart ache. Things that made me smile.

I stumbled upon the website again tonight and found this quote. Although I partially agree with it, I'm finding myself much more romantic about the wedding and far more in love with my future husband than it sounds.

"You seem very calm for a woman who's getting married, I said & she nodded. It's on my to-do list, she said, so there's no point in agonizing about it."

That's what I need to remember, not to agonize. 25 years from now, I won't remember if my bridesmaid's eyebrows weren't waxed or that I got a blister from my new shoes. I will (hopefully) remember the way my heart fluttered when I saw his face, walking toward him, to become his wife. I will remember the blur of happiness that surrounded us in the form of our family and friends.
