Nat “King” Cole’s “L-O-V-E” is really an appropriate song for a first dance at a wedding, when you think about it. It’s not some slow-drag number, where you can just do the junior-high full-body squeeze and just Frankenstein around the dance floor for three and a half minutes while the photographer shoots and everybody goes awwwwwwwwwwwww. No, it’s peppy, it’s upbeat, and it requires you to make an effort to work together to actually, you know, dance. Everybody’s looking, there’s pressure, you have to practice and get it right – and you have to be willing to take on the challenge in the first place.
As a metaphor for marriage, you could do worse. =)
I like it. It has a beat, I can dance to it. (But I’m also biased.)
I’m really looking forward to our getaway weekend for our 10 year (dating) anniversary this weekend. I know we call sitting out by the firepit at the Ritz Carlton HMB as “Vanderbilt camping,” but we both know that’s not really camping. I think you’ll find that the place we’re going to this weekend will definitely be known as Vanderbilt camping!
I love you with my whole heart and being.
