In two days my younger sister will marry the man she loves and its making me just a bit emotional.
In two days she'll promise to be with him through everything life throws at them. And then, we as friends and family will watch and love and support them as best we can. In the end we'll pray that their love will grow as they grow.
I hope my sister forgives her husband when he makes mistakes.
And I hope my brother in law does the same.
I hope they trust in each other, not because their partner deserves it but because a truly beautiful relationship is built on trust and has nothing to do with whether we deserve it or not.
In two days they'll be surrounded by the people that are most important to them in the whole entire world. In two days they'll stand in front of those people and pledge an emotion that was instilled in humanity from the beginning. A fleck of God himself, placed in a fragile imperfect body.
It will be a good day.
