Life

Life moves on, it stands still for no-one.

I find it interesting that my bunch of friends are all moving forward with different plans and different dreams.

Some friends are engaged and planning like crazy for their wedding day a few months away. Some other friends are engaged and liking the status quo, so no plans on a wedding date are forthcoming. Some friends are already married and trying hard to fall pregnant and pass the precious things that each of them have onto another person that is a shared being. Others already have their children and are amazed at the things that they learn and the questions that they are asked. A friend has got a work visa and is going to London for at least 2 years of working, growing and adventure. Another friend is awaiting a visit from a significant other. The plans are for a lucious and special holiday. This same friend is waiting to hear what is happening with his application to leave this country on a perminant basis.

I find it that each of my friends have a very special plan that is coming to fruition. I am amazed at the depth of dreams that are held by the people that I hold dear.

I am working on discovering what I want. I heard this song and it made me envious of the others. Not that I would wish their lives on my and my life on them. I just want something that I don't have. And it is something that I cannot simply go out and get...

Marry Me - Amanda Marshall
I wanna laugh until I cry
Wake up with you each day 'till the day that I die
Let's go to New Orleans and watch the parade
Take funny pictures, eat jambalaya, and drink lemonade
And when the day is finally over
And we stumble home
Before we sleep
Baby, marry me

I wanna drive until we get lost
Lie in a field staring up at the sky while you point out the Southern Cross
Somehow I know without asking why that you love me more in a minute
Than anyone could in a lifetime dancing in the parking lot
While the band plays inside sweep me off my feet
Baby, marry me
We don't need no preacher man
Readin' from the Good Book and I don't want no fancy dress
Ain't no ceremony for the vows that I took from the moment I met you
I have been blessed so let's make a toast and drink up the wine
Here's to you lying here next to me until the end of time

Wherever you are I wanna be
And anything that means anything to you means everything to me
Sneakin' out the back door while they're throwing the rice
And they'll talk for weeks but we're all we need
So baby, if you're free marry me
Baby, marry me, marry me
