getting ready.

I’m kind of restless today, I suppose it’s the leftover sleepiness from like, forever… and the feeling like I’m going to fall ill. Then again, everyone in the office is sniffly and on the brink of unwell. I’ve been downing plenty of cranberry juice in the hopes of avoiding that.

Tonight, we’re off to meet our solemniser, Ms Isabel Tang. Fingers crossed all goes well! She’s kindly agreed to do a reading for us, at the end of our wedding ceremony :

Now you will feel no rain, for each of you will be shelter for the other.

Now you will feel no cold, for each of you will be warmth to the other.

Now there will be no loneliness, for each of you will be companion to the other.

Now you are two persons, but there is only one life before you.

May beauty surround you both in the journey ahead and through all the years,

May happiness be your companion and your days together be good and long upon the earth.

- an Apache blessing
