Finding the fragments

I don't know if you ever get this feeling - the sort that makes you want to pump your fist in the air knowing that it has all fallen into place and everything is exactly as it should be.

Like when you're watching a movie and the protagonist finally conquers their demons.  Or when the guy finally gets together with the girl.  It just makes me want to jump and shout with elation.  I am smiling so hard my cheeks are sore and my heart is overflowing with joy and relief (that they didn't stuff up!).

That's exactly how I felt with this photo.

Ferg & Rach have been married the better part of seven months now and I must admit I always wondered what emotions Ferg encountered as he watched her walking down the aisle.

While everyone was watching the bride, I sneaked a glance in the groom's direction - watching the expressions that crossed his face as he savoured the first moments of being a husband and holding her in his arms were a real privilege.  And watching as she smiled back up at him as they had their first dance as a married couple.

It radiated between them.  I do believe it actually reached out and permeated the space around them.

Is that what love is?

I seem to have collected many fragmented parts to an incomplete answer but I think I found another sliver today.

Hope you are enjoying the weekend.
