The day before the wedding is always an exciting time. Apart
from all the setting up and preparations for the guests, some run around for
last minute facials and haircuts, others have to finish wrapping their gifts
and some head for a relaxing coffee before the mayhem begins. The main day
ofcourse is one that goes by at lightning speed. Once the first guests start
pouring in, one loses track of time and before you know it, the sun has set and
the party is over. I have been through this experience twice already and to
think that it is only the fifth month of the calendar!
Today was the day after the wedding -- lots of cleaning and
taking-things-back to where they belong. This makes it three elders from our
generation who are now happily married. In the next few years there’ll be quite
a number of weddings to attend and prepare for, but for now I want to take a
break from this particular celebration. Too much of everything is bad for
health, they say. Well I have had an overdose of weddings this spring.
