Project Happiness: Day 26

On Day 26, I attended a wedding that me and my friends have been waiting for since Jan.  Yep, it was Sweet N's sibling's matrimonio partaay and it rocked.

Lemme start by confirming that I looked great and according to N carried myself in a regal, royal way. Actually I felt more like a Shehrezadeh.   
And the wedding itself went great.  I felt 'cool'and part of the in-crowd, dancing the night away till dusk.

The wedding ceremony itself had its mini-flaws like all weddings regardless of how good the organizer is but it all fit in perfectly with its imperfections.  

The only negative vibe we got was from our buddy N who has become very bitter with everyone around her thinking of herself as superior to all.  You see, this lass has been in love with a hesitant man for the past 8 years.  He has promised her matrimony but backed out so many times for lame excuses such as short of funds or his health or his nan's health (yes can you believe it) or other lame excuses.  I think this wait is what is frustrating her so much.

I feel so sorry for her and hope to God that I do not end up falling in the same trap.  I do not wish to judge her because I can understand where she is coming from and when it comes to matters of the heart, most women are too weak to take a big decision.  I too am waiting for that miracle but the only difference is: my beau insists he never wants to get married while hers keeps promising her futively.  I hope truly hope that this desire of hers does come true.

That night, I went home and prayed to God, thanking him for all the blessings that I have.  A part of me is afraid that if I do not show gratefulness then the blessings bestowed upon me might be take away.  Another smaller part of me realizes that I should be thanking him day and night for all that he has given me. 

So on day 26, I can say that I am happy, moderately happy but nonetheless happy Alhamdulilah.
