I certainly can't think of any other reason to spend an astronomical amount of money on a wedding.Linda@VShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04499621332375290781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-59889078210774817832013-03-25T15:23:24.053-05:002013-03-25T15:23:24.053-05:00Maybe we all hope for the fairy tale and then lear...Maybe we all hope for the fairy tale and then learn to live with the disappointment . I sometimes think that is why most women and mothers make such a big deal over weddings. The bride is hoping for the fairy tale and the mother knows this is most likely all of it she will ever see.Annette Harringtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15367278617237356980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-88335576271312022102013-03-24T10:55:17.616-05:002013-03-24T10:55:17.616-05:00Val, I find it difficult to post anything that exp...Val, I find it difficult to post anything that exposes my vulnerabilities, so I was touched by the fact that you jumped right in there beside me and flashed your own. I agree that you and I seem to have a lot in common, from trust issues to the music in our heads to not letting our "what-if" moments hold us down.

I've been coming here for many years and have thought for so many years that we are truly soul sisters for so much of what you say and feel just mirrors my own feelings. We are the same age and I believe we both are casualties of war....The Viet Nam War. I have always believed that everyone has a soul mate but, like you, I've never met mine. I think, with all my heart, that the war took him. I've married and had children but the marriage failed and my heart never sang. I mean no offense to my children, as you know, but I have always felt......... You know what I feel. I have become quiet and reserved; one who does not trust easily and my heart is protected by layers of common sense. No room for fairy tales anymore....although I do miss them.Golden To Silver Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04585559845728927540noreply@blogger.com
