oh julia and jake, i’m far from talented enough to express how lovely your wedding celebration was. i love that you wrote the thoughts of your heart that day in a journal, and that so many people in your family shared something wonderful (a reading, a piece of music or in the case of your aunt – a necklace from your family). i adore that you found lots of opportunities to embrace and kiss, and that so did everyone else because your love spilled over…or perhaps your love for each other had been informed by the abundance of love residing within each of your families. i appreciate that as a bride & groom you danced your hearts out and that as you look at one another, i see a bit of the life you’ll enjoy for many years to come.
your ceremony will be recorded as one of my most favored memories :) -m-
one of the things my life has taught me is how important it is to try to say “i love you”
in ways that can be preserved, looked at, and read when you are alone or when there is adversity
or when circumstances bring separation. in any case…saying “i love you” is one of the “secrets”
of the happy marriage that ronnie and i have shared. ronnie’s letters move me to this day.
they are his gift to me across the years, and throughtout the decades of love.
