After the final notes fade away, the young lady has tears in her eyes. The young man kisses her tears away, then gestures to the man behind the turntable, and again within a few seconds, the melody of one of his favorite songs comes wafting through the speakers.
Afte the final notes fades away, the young man and the young lady walk back to their seats, all the while engulfed in an incredibly loud round of applause.
My good friends, on this particular day back in 1989, smack dab in the middle of a downtown festival, I tied the knot with the only girlfriend I've ever had.
Twenty three years later, she still remains the only true love of my life.
What a great story, man. Congratulations to you both.
ReplyDeleteAww you've gone all sentimental! How cute! Congratulations on making it 23 years!!
ReplyDeleteOh - that's lovely, G. Very special.
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary, you two crazy kids!
ReplyDeleteI love that Orbison album and song. And congrats to both of you, G. Thank you for sharing that special time.
ReplyDeleteTo everyone: Thank you for your thoughtful comments.
ReplyDeleteHard to believe that I've been married 23 years and overall, been with my lovely wife for 25.
Awww!! Happy anniversary! What a sweet post, G. And I love both of these artists.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to you both for being together so long!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on so many happy years together (and many more to come!)
ReplyDeleteHubby and I celebrate 32 years of marriage in a couple of months (you don't get that for murder these days ;-p) - it doesn't seem that long but once you start to reminisce you realise all the events and milestones you've experienced together!
Congratulations, again!
Thanks everyone!
ReplyDeleteIt is an incredible milestone as when I was younger, I never dreamed that I would be married, let alone have a girlfriend.
But as they say, God does work in mysterious ways, and I'm glad that he did.
