The First Thing
... I thought of when I woke up this morning was a wedding dress. I couldn't remember where I saw it and I roamed the internet looking for it. I ended up, very surprisingly, musing on my dream wedding.
So, that's what I was on the hunt for. That dress. I must must must be thinking about it because of the exposure of wedding dresses (Kate, Lily, Kate) because, up until recently, I was against the idea of it for myself. A marriage, that is to say.
My parents weren't married, my sister is in a civil union, I've just grown up around people that think it's become superfluous and maybe even an obsolete and dying institution. (To be specific, the stats in Quebec are quite remarkable compared to the rest of Canada.) I, however, am torn. I am such a romantic and love the idea of being monogamous with the same person until death do us part, but I'm also a realist and think that that notion can be a great disservice to many husbands, wives and children and in many cases to the detriment of ones happiness. (Blah, blah, blah...) Anyway, it's a source of some internal debate. I have time to mull it over - I'm currently unattached, so...
Also, Yay! I've just reached the 100 follower benchmark! That's really cool. Thanks y'all! x
