Reliving it

There are many emotional moments in life that I care to never relive again. In fact, I take care to never think of them. But then there are so many that I only have glimmers of images, slowly eroding with time. We never had a video camera growing up, so there are many things that live only in my head. But my recent wedding is not one of those. We had one of Chris’s guys do the filming. It is AMAZING. I have not seen all of it, but he captured so many of the moments, glimpses, details that I longed to remember forever. He was able to capture the feeling of it all. My memories are not deceiving me, it really was the magical.

One of my favorite things was watching my Dad and I walk down the aisle. In that moment, I was trying not to lose it. I was trying to take it all in, capture it, and live it. I looked at the people there, at Chris, and mainly tried not to contort my face. But in my mind, I was a mess, i was visibly nervous, and I thought people were thinking “poor girl”. Watching the real thing, I looked composed, calm, serene even. Dare I say beautiful?

It struck me, how many times I think of what others think, and I always assume the worst. But there was nothing but beauty in that emotional, perfect moment. Just live it.

So anyway…I feel so happy that I can relive that time. That i have something that equals the experience.
