I hate choir music, rap artist covering good songs, anyone covering the Beatles' songs, beer, and dare I say it, coffee.morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02817293003630581559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588376429247025873.post-6826463932684677732011-01-30T15:39:32.987-05:002011-01-30T15:39:32.987-05:00So true, Mageela.

Although we remember our wedding day fondly, it's the years afterward that really count.Josiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05930730661273079224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588376429247025873.post-87226386902875972852011-01-30T05:17:40.362-05:002011-01-30T05:17:40.362-05:00Weddings are on my mind at the moment as I'm c...Weddings are on my mind at the moment as I'm currently planning my daughter's wedding on June 3rd. I am looking forward to her wedding, which we plan to be a lovely celebration for all the family. In this day and age when so many young people don't choose to make that commitment to each other I am pleased she and her fiance are so keen to get married. But I completely take your point that the wedding day is just the start of the journey and many people seem to overlook this point. I think the same applies to couples waiting for the birth of their first baby. They seem to think the birth is everything when it is just the start of the rest of their lives with their child.Helen Scott Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12254001495060374379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588376429247025873.post-69722807409067311022011-01-29T21:46:09.803-05:002011-01-29T21:46:09.803-05:00I have a friend who hates weddings.

I love weddings, especially in an age that seems to think they are outdated and don't need them to be together.<br /><br />It is such a celebration. You are standing in front of your family and friends and saying 'we will be together'. When times get tough your family and friends need to remind you of that standing up thing you did and make you stick to it.

We're just getting a year older and have no merit in the process. But I always celebrate wedding anniversary, a proof that we work hard at keeping a marriage going and happy.Mona Riskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14923883333893160794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588376429247025873.post-232687947272215202011-01-29T12:55:35.323-05:002011-01-29T12:55:35.323-05:00For me, weddings are the celebration of love, and ...For me, weddings are the celebration of love, and while I didn't have a huge wedding, 52 people to be exact, it's something I will never forget.<br /><br />And true, it is the beginning of the story, but as you say, no one is perfect and it's definitely a process of learning to choose your battles wisely. <br /><br />I don't agree watching my husband trying to toss his clothes in the hamper and missing, is love. It's love when he picks them up after his miss and places them where they belong. :-) But more importantly, I think it comes down to respect for one another. <br /><br />Very insightful post, Mageela.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12659478699744541765noreply@blogger.com
