another one bites the dust

Usually I am a hive of activity over the weekend, catching up on blog reading and blog posting. But this weekend was quiet for one very big and very important reason. My best friend got MARRIED!!

I met Domi at work and we instantly clicked. She is one of the kindest, most generous and genuine people I have ever met. She has been nothing but amazing since I met her nearly two years ago. She is one of those selfless people that exude so much warmth and support that you just fall in love with her. Which I guess is what happened to Andreas, her now husband, when he first met her. 

They have a simply beautiful love story which culminated in a wonderful wedding on Saturday. The thunder and lightening didnt stop the traditional Greek Orthodox Ceremony and the rain clouds dissappeared in time for the outside cocktail by the pool surround with lanterns and little candles. 

This was the soundtrack to a super cute video, with childhood pictures, dedicated to their parents. What a tear jerker; my table was a blubbering mess by the end.

  2. Hi Mimi! I just wanted to thank you for your comment on my blog yesterday, and for sharing a little of your story with me. I am so sorry to hear about your mom, and I can't imagine how hard that must have been for you at such a young age. Yes, keep searching and asking questions. I think it's important to believe in something, and that belief could offer you a lot of comfort here on Earth. I suppose the worst case scenario is that it winds up not being true, and there simply is no afterlife. I, however, chose to believe there is. It doesn't make sense to me that this would all be for nothing. I actually feel excited sometimes about going on and finding out what's next, and being reunited with souls I've loved. We'll see, won't we? :)
