Soul Ties

It's 12:48am and I just finished working out to Billy Blank's bootcamp dvd. Why? Because I'm trying to get that last minute sexy going before I'm draping a tuxedo to stand in front of one of my closest friends wedding guests. I recently received the honor of serving as a groomsman for his wedding.

As I sat at his final rehearsal dinner tonight, a number of thoughts crossed my mind. First, I was proud of the courage he had to make the decision to find a woman that he loved enough to make her his wife. Now some of you may think that's not that serious; however, the average brother isn't trying to place himself in a serious monogomous relationship, let alone jump the broom. The second thing I thought was, how are his ex-girlfriends feeling about his current union. I know it's not something that should be mentioned but bump it, I'm keeping it real. Hell, I wonder if they were informed and even invited to the wedding. Speak out ya'll, is it considered common courtesy to invite your ex to your wedding? Technically I guess their feelings don't matter because they didn't have what it took to make the cut. Truly, it is my beliefs that his wife is an extraordinary woman and she deserves to be married to a man of his caliber.

I currently am happily in love and can't wait for the day to take Beyonce's instructions and put a ring on it. I also know that I only plan on doing the whole marriage thing once so I want to make sure I do it right. It takes a brave man to want to walk the plank as most of us put it; however, many of the lucky ones don't drown after the plunge, they float and eventually walk on water because marriage is an institution that is ordained by God. Anyway, congratualtions to you my brother and I wish you and your beautiful bride nothing but pure happiness, joy, and most of all, love for God and one another. I'll be there tomorrow to help you all celebrate your crowning achievement. Thanks for thinking enough of me to bestow me with that honor.

I'm Out...
