“L” is for the way you look at me

It’s been 7 months now.

There’s this cliché phrase,  “Happiest day of my life!”

“Yeah right!” said Diana’s pessimism.

Yet the same heart that had been broken and no longer believed in love, was shocked for the last time. It was time to believe in life after love. (Thank you Cher)

Time seemed to slow down as the judge spoke about the promise we were making. I was part of the audience for a second. Seeing all the faces of all the people I love. My dad right by our side and cell phones taking the place of people’s view. It was happening.

So fast.

So slow.

It was over before I knew it.

He said Yes and so did I.

Stop for a min and envision this; You’ve stepped into a large pool of soap with the person you love. You hold hands. Suddenly a large circular wand is at your feet. It is then lifted and for a brief moment, you’re in a bubble. Don’t let it pop – just be part of it. We were.
