"The Bride" 

I wonder if ever

I will be a bride

With a white lace gown

Standing in front of everyone

Looking beautiful

Because someone

Loves me

That much.

Imagine meeting someone who's so important to you, other than family, who you want to spend with for the rest of your life with. To wake up everyday to, to see the person in their worst states, through thick and thin. Sometimes I really wonder how it feels like to be so close to a person who's not related to you by blood, to let that person into your thoughts and soul. To be truly comfortable with that one and never get tired of him/her. Its so amazing, don't you think? 

But I guess these days people get married for different reasons. Like they think that they're "at the right age", or they're afraid to be left on the shelf and deemed as "unwanted", or cause they're friends are all getting married (probably shotgun? hahaha), etc. Then they have kids cause thats what people are supposed to do after they get married. Its like just being another one in society, conforming to the norms. But shouldn't we get married cause you just know that the person is the person and you really just want to be with that person "forever" (though I officially kind of gave up on the idea of forever). 

yet another post of my super random thoughts* 

4-8 Year Olds Describing Love. 

Rebecca, age 8: When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint her toenails anymore. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That's love.

Danny, age 7: Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK.

Chris, age 7: Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford.

Mary Ann, age 4: Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day.

Terri, age 4: Love is what makes you smile when you're tired.

(p.s. The kids have got their own stuffs to teach the adults too.)
