Has she dreamt of it, every night, for the last 20 years? The details, plans, decorations are secondary to the man--the variable which becomes constant--that she holds on to in the center of it all.

How many others all around are dreaming every night, and have been for 20 years, of this life changing event?

The variable that I am still varies within, let alone inside the minds of others, if I am even there. Witnessing the emotional beauty taught a lesson: clearly, I am underdeveloped, clearly, I am not prepared in even the slightest manner for such an event myself.

It is a relief.

God bless you, Karen and James.
