Yesterday I witnessed something truly beautiful, I watched as two people whom I love and respect make vows to their families, friends, community and God. I watched as a ceremony unfolded before my eyes.

It was beautiful and special. I admit more than once during the events, I felt my chest tighten a little. While I stood there viewing this ritual take place, I smiled to myself.

We forget with the daily responsibilities the important things in life like love. I'm so happy that these two people didn't forget.

I feel very privileged to have witnessed something so lovely, as two people committing their lives to each other. I am so happy for this couple, may they have a long and happy life together.
