I’ve been held captive lately, but tonight I was free to attend yena and Keith’s wedding. Yena is Eddie’s cousin, and At one point, any cousin of Eddie’s became a cousin of mine. Tonight could have been awkward though. I was seated at the family table right next to the bride’s parents. relatives who traveled from Korea were interested in meeting me. They were warm; anxiety dissolves in warmth.
i signed Eddie’s name in the guestbook with the words “in spirit.”
contrary to popular belief, my favorite part of a wedding isn’t the open bar. Not the cake either. It’s the vows. I used to think I could predict whether a couple would end up in divorce or not based on the virtue of their vows. It’s not negative thinking—I think divorce can Be as beautiful as marriage—but that’s for later. Promises were broken; and people die—but love glitters gold. All over the place.
i love love so much.
