I'm engaged!

So, as of November 27th 2011, I am no longer waiting and single! I'm so glad to be engaged to my sweetheart of 4 years. HOWEVER, this past weekend was almost too much to handle. It was ecstatic moment for me (even though I was slightly anxious on how things going to happen). Here’s the good news to all: I'm engaged to be married to a truly amazing man early next year.
I could not be happier than anything to announce to all who care to know that I am getting married! (to some extend people whom are jealous of me also waiting to know; just that they got nothing to do besides poking their nose into our ass! Haha). I am very excited to have FINALLY found the man I want to share my entire life with for as long as I live. This is a very happy time in my life and I am doing my best to take it all in, and appreciate all that it is and all that he is to me.

We got “engaged” on Sunday night. The ambiance of the betrothal ceremony was close to perfection. It was around 8 am when I got up that morning in anxious state for a precious moment of my life. I was welcomed by my family members to a special treatment since I was the princess of the day. My cousins were already here to decorate the house with fairy lightings, balloons and other decorative flower. It’s like in a snap of a finger; everything was right in front of me. The flow of the event was in place just close to perfection. Everyone was singing praise over the gorgeous decoration in the temple, food was delicious despite the fact it was vegetarian and also the memorable ceremony unfold beautifully without any hiatus by God’s grace. The elders say if you have a good heart and thoughts, everything will be a blessing to us.

Confetti in the air. Love shined in our eyes. Symbol of betrothal adorned our vena amoris. Happiness blossomed in everyone’s heart. Blessings of God and genuine souls attended this ceremony. Abundance of joy. What more could I ask for? A day I would cherish till eternity.

Becoming engaged has made me suddenly aware that I feel I am seeking a new phase of life and new relationship blossomed. It means my social obligation takes me off to a different ground! I am usually uncomfortable when people that I am not extremely close with suddenly lifts the expectation to sync in future life. We are going to be sharing the atmosphere with them in social functions and also be part of them to uphold my new family name together. But this time around I myself was taken by surprise when I was feeling comfortable by my fiancé’s family members who all turn up at our engagement ceremony to bless us wholeheartedly and share the beginning of our blissful journey into marital life. All their love could be seen through their eyes and the blessings by sincere wishes welcoming me into the family. I am looking forward for a wonderful family bonding with these lovely souls in near future.

I have never been as happy and fulfilled in a relationship with a man as I am in this one. I am being treated so well, and been made to feel as loved and desired as I do, and had as much affection, acceptance, and appreciation as I receive from him. I am left wishing for nothing. In addition to that, I have always been rather surprised that a woman could literally be taken by total surprise by abundance of love & not see it coming at all in times of despair (It was in one of the family conflict, I saw him standing up for me just because some ‘smart alec’ mistreated me virtually). It leaves me wondering how much love he actually has for me and how is he going to take good care of me by making such a huge sacrifice for me. Part of what has made me feel so secure and fulfilled in my relationship is the total transparency.

Thank you Lord for giving me the man of my life!
