Life isn't a movie...

Yesterday I went to a wedding. Right before the ceremony I asked my friend if after watching the ceremony I would want to get married too. You see, its like those movies about a dancer or about a person who plays an instrument, you always want to be them after you see them succeed in some way. So after the ceremony I found I still wasnt convinced. It was your typical wedding but still not my thing.

The groom gave a speech where he specifically said he always thought he wouldnt get married it wasnt 'his thing', but that all changed when he met the one. He said he knew the second he met her that they would get married.

I think the whole wedding was just out of perspective for me. I didnt know the families and the guests and I wasn't hearing all the conversations going on between bride and groom and family. Im sure it was without a doubt and quite obviously a completely different day for them. For me it just felt like another wedding... looked like everyother wedding.

So my thoughts are that it wasn't my wedding. By that I mean; even if did get married in the same venue had the same setup it would be really special cause it would be mine and my husbands and we'd be seeing everything from the eyes of the prize.

Sometimes watching other people get married etc.. you start to wonder where your life is in comparrison. Maybe I should change all kinds to be more on the path of settling down and getting serious. But really I dont think it happens like that it's really more like night and day. You meet someone and that changes everything.

So a wedding isnt like a movie where you cant be inspired to get married. You can always learn to dance or learn to play guitar but you cant learn to get married. You can't plan it so whether today I'm set on getting married and tomorrow its not my thing.. you never know what will happen.
