Life is all about timing, when a couple of weeks ago, I found myself watching the Friends Episode where Monica & Chandler getting engaged. It was adept for that nights as I sat there looking at an engagement ring on my left finger. The jokes about never getting married now seemed to be on the other foot.
I felt odd sitting there alone, the king of my heart at work. We had promised to wait to spread the news. Something that was hard but necessary. I think girls tend to be more hyper about weddings, due to the Princess stories in Disney digging the foundations. My favourite disney is Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. Snow White being banished and then finding home with the outlaws until her prince comes. I've never been one who believed in the whole needing a man to rescue you. But sitting in my flat with a diamond on my finger, I did a security, which is different to what I have felt before.
Does this make me a princess as I think two hearts are better than one? I don't think so. There are plenty of tales I can share that prove being single is as an exciting time as it is now. I've lived and travelled. I have created a life of independent living but now the journey ahead is about the two of us. It is not going to change me or my personal goals, it just means that the book has a new chapter on man and wife! And I felt a different contentment where being poker faced for a weekend allowed me time to think about the future, our future and I can start to learn how to cope with all the happiness that is welling up inside of me.
