Appetite for construction
So I have yet another wedding to go to... Yes, 4th wedding I am invited to this year. I am pretty excited about this one for a few reasons. First I love the bride to be... She is the embodiment of beauty and generosity and has always had my back. Second, the wedding is in New Orleans! I have never been and what better way to discover the city but with locals. Although I am always so cynical about weddings, I am thrilled for my friend. Last year she reconnected with a guy she dated in her early 20's and I remember her telling me with such excitement about him on our way to a Lady Gaga concert. I knew then he was special to her and indeed what was a chance encounter is now turning into a wonderful love story. This good news inspired me to listen to the smooth sounds of Jose James' Blackmagic
album and Sade's Lovers Rock
. I can't believe I have not listened to a sad song this week. Another thing I can't believe, my appetite is somewhat back. I actually ate 3 meals today. This might spell trouble now that I have to attend all these weddings. Nothing a hike or a bootcamp class can't cure I suppose. Just like Jonatan Mårtensson says: "Success will never be a big step in the future, success is a small step taken just now". I measure my success in healing in small steps: today I ate 3 meals, did not cancel a visit to the dentist and caught up with friends and felt ok about attending a wedding by myself. Tomorrow, I put my construction hat on and keep building a bright future..!!
