7 hours... A couple thoughts...
Forums › General Discussion › 7 hours... A couple thoughts...-
In 7 short hours, my life will forever be changed. I will walk down the aisle and take a wife. Nervous excitement fills my house as we speak as people become abuzz with activity. Pausing for a moment here and there for a quick breath of air as boxes, tuxedos, and gowns get loaded into vehicles, preparing to be enroute to the reception hall and church. I've recently started reflecting on my emotions, a concept I've never had a very strong grasp of in the past. There is definitely excitement, and for good reason. It's not every day a man takes a bride. But there's something else lying beneath that; fear.

Good luck mate. Better fear than apathy, have a great time and we will see you when you get back as a married man.

Fear of being the man she needs. Fear of a new beginning. And, of course, fear of failure. This is a huge milestone in life. There's no surprise about the fear. From what I've gathered, most grooms face it. I'm fairly certain this is what they mean by cold feet. Some simply can't handle the fear, and leave their bride standing at the altar, heartbroken. Some embrace it, using the energy and focusing it toward their ceremonies. I'm using mine to drive me, to push myself to accomplish the setup of the hall and chapel. Today my life changes for the better. Today I marry my best friend.

Well said. Look her in the eye and stand up straight.

You're right, fear is normal... If you're lucky the fear will subside once you settle in to married life. For some of us the fear grows inside. The tearing of sadistic butterflies, ripping at the inside wall of the stomach, because she's due home from work. The sweats of anxiety begin rolling down your body like a waterfall. Heart racing at more beats per minute than one of those techno discotheque gatherings the young ones go to. What needs to be apologised for today, there must be something there always is. Argh, what have I forgotten? Then the shadow is cast upon the doorway as she reaches for the handle. Your heart is now superseding the killer butterflies and threatens to punch through and make a bid for freedom.
On a serious note... Take a pair of training shoes to the service... You never know!
Honestly though, I jest in the name of cliche. Lol All the very best to you and your soon to be oppressor....sorry, wife. 😄
Cheers 🍻

Shadow - you will fail. You will succeed. You will laugh and you may even cry. But take it from someone who's been on the road - don't worry about being "the man". Be who you are as that is the person your best friend fell for. The only thing I can offer with certainty is to always talk with her and be honest and you will have nothing to fear. ENJOY the day and G-d bless you both!

Congrats Shadow, you still have about 45 minutes of freedom. I went to Labamba for a burrito as big as my head, not sure what you're doing but....I hope you have a great day my friend! Relax and remember that today is the day you get to hold the whole world in your arms and make it yours.

May this be one of the best days of your life. You'll feel everything. Don't fret over the goof-ups. My first husband forgot the ring and I got married in my brother's wedding band. It was funny and all else being equal...it didn't matter. The people you love and you bride matter most--enjoy them. You'll do great.❤💋

I can just see Cracka's speech:"ShadowKing is a great guy but he really needs to learn to fight instead of just hopping around the map... But at least he's mobbing up..... slowly.....(wink for special effect)"
