Wedding! Marriage and Love rant.

This is how I feel in church.

Over the weekend my amazing cousin got married to probably one of the nicest, most amazing guys ever. He's so much better than her first husband and fits in so well with our family. The ceremony was very nice and didn't take place in a church, so I wasn't ancy, or worried about being struck down by divine lightning for being a "disbeliever." All of the bridesmaids looked amazing, and my cousin stood out above everyone. Her dress was very simple, a small train that was able to be hooked up in the back, and a few sewings of rhinestones here and there. 

It was nice to see all my country cousins sporting tuxedo's, and it was kind of hilarious knowing they were probably very uncomfortable to be in them. At one point, my cousin was joking about wearing a camouflage tux for his wedding day. Something tells me his future girlfriend/wife would not be pleased with that decision. On the other hand, if she's like him in any way, she may actually support the idea and wear a camouflage dress, haha. Now that would be an interesting wedding!

The love should be there no matter
what age.

On a more serious note, I think this was the only time in my life where I've felt ashamed that my parents aren't married. My parents have been together 21 years, and I don't think they plan on changing that. And, I think this was the first time I felt rather angry towards them for not loving each other. What brought this on was a couples dance. All the married couples got up onto the dance floor to dance. The DJ went year by year, knocking off the younger couples, until there was only one couple left, who was married 50+ years. And, to see that they were still so in love after so many years, made me kind of angry with my parents. Which, reader, if you're in a relationship that there is not mutual true love between you both, don't put your children through argument after argument. I never want to become like my parents, I love them both very dearly; but sometimes I question if they love each other enough to even tolerate each other anymore.

And the love is there,
no matter what orientation.

Which also brings me to another note that most of you have been wondering if i'd bring up. Gay Marriage. My views are, if a couple loves each other enough, they should be married. Whether they're gay, straight, or aliens. Love is love, and no one can tell you who you can't love, or can love. I rather see a happily married gay couple, than see a married straight couple who hates each other. Yet, they have more right to get married than people who love each other? I don't believe in this "god made man and woman, and made it Adam and Eve; not Adam and Steve." Well, guess what, Adam and Steve probably would love each other, and respect each other more than Adam and Eve. Just my opinion, of course.

Another thing about it, is that they actually have to fight to be able to get married. Which makes it a hell of a lot more special for them to be married, in the first place. To fight so hard for someone you love, and the right to be able to marry them is truly moving. It's a bond between two people that love each other, that's all that matters in the end. They would probably go through more as a couple, than a straight married couple would, which makes their bonds stronger.

If the love is there, don't let it fade.

My views on love are "whoever I fall in love with, I fall in love with." Which means, I don't care about gender at all. (Though, age may be an issue.)  I have fallen in love with one of the most amazing people in this entire world, and I can't wait to be able to move in with him for the first time. We've been together for 15 months now, and it's been the greatest 15 months of my life. Though, we've had our ups and downs, especially with it being a long distance relationship, we still love each other. Love, is such an amazing feeling, and I hope people everywhere, can feel it, even if it's just for one day. Everyone deserves to be loved, without that emotion being received and given, the world would be a much dimmer place. Even if the word "Love" is thrown around all the time, I still believe it has meaning if spoken between the right people.
