WE FELL IN LOVE ONE NIGHT FROM THE EAST VILLAGE – SIMPLY BY SHOWING UP – TRUSTING OUR HEARTS, OUR INTUITION TO CONNECT RATHER THAN RETREAT.
SHE, HAVING A SERIES OF EVENTS TO ATTEND THAT NIGHT– ALL IN CELEBRATION OF INCREDIBLE FRIENDS – THOUGH DOING SO WHILE FIGHTING A BOUT OF DEPRESSION IN WHICH SHE HAD TO HAVE A CHAT WITH GOD AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT LEAVING THE HOUSE WAS A MUCH BETTER IDEA THAN SOME OTHERS THAT CAME TO MIND.
HE, PAYING NO ATTENTION TO THE FACT IT WAS A SATURDAY NIGHT, EXHAUSTED FROM MILE HIGH FLIGHTS AND SHAKING THE TAMBOURINE – CHOSE TO SWING BY THE SAME EVENT BECAUSE…. WELL, IT WAS NEAR THE LAUNDROMAT WHERE HE JUST FINISHED LAUNDRY AND MORE IMPORTANTLY BECAUSE HE BELIEVES THOSE UNEXPECTED MOMENTS ARE WHERE THE MAGIC JUST MIGHT HAPPEN….
….AND SO IT DID.
SHE WALKS IN AND SEES A HALO. THEY LOCK EYES FROM ACROSS THE ROOM. BAM! WOW! POP– WHIZZZZZ! – JUST LIKE HEAVEN – LOVE COMES TO TOWN.
PRESENT DAY–
SHOULD WE GET MARRIED? SHOULD WE BE GOOD?
WHEN WE THOUGHT ABOUT THE FORMALITIES OF A WEDDING, IT DIDN’T FEEL RIGHT, IT’S NOT US. THE LOVE WE KNOW IS A DAILY CHOICE, A LARGER CONSCIOUSNESS, A BRAVE ACT. IT’S BIGGER THAN US, IT’S A LOVE THAT BINDS US TOGETHER AS ONE, THAT BINDS US ALL – WHOEVER YOU ARE. WE ARE ALL LOVE.
SO WE DESIGNED THE FESTIVAL OF LOVE – AN EVENT FOR THOSE WE LOVE AND THOSE WE DON’T KNOW, BUT LOVE ANYWAY.
A TWIST ON TRADITION, AN ACT OF SPIRITUAL MODERNITY – IT’S OUR VERSION OF A WEDDING.
WE’D LOVE TO SEE YOU THERE.
