No visions of ever after bliss you are my one and only had I. For never did I dream or think or plan that someday I would marry. But I did and I am. Married.
We had a celebration, a ceremony, because we wanted to share our joy with the people we loved. It was an exquisite day. It is more than a legal or sacred bond between us, it is a connection, a commitment to our past and our future, our home and our community and our culture. These years of living and sharing with my pal, my friend, my lover, my husband, have given me joy, those times when what I chose and what I desire are the same.
