Pathological Problems

When I was a little girl I was obsessed with weddings.
I would play with my dolls and inevitably, Barbie would marry Ken, She-Ra would marry Bow, Jem would marry Rio.
You get the drift.
My mother made me a bridal veil out of a white plastic head-band with flowers on top and a magenta chiffon-esq veil.
Beautiful.
I would wear this veil on a regular basis. I loved all things weddings.
Nowadays, not only do I have no desire to get married anytime soon, but the very thought of it makes me kinda ill.
If I do get married, I also have every intention of eloping or some such thing.
Maybe a Walk-Ins-Welcome Chapel in the Smokey Mountains . . .
The problem with all of this thinking is that I am also very much aware of being in my late 20's and I know that time is a tickin' . . .
I don't really want to be an old maid
I don't know.
What I do know is that I'm not going to figure it out anytime soon. And not only that, but whatever I think about the subject now is probably going to be radically different when/if I'm faced with making a choice about it.
That's cool.
Love however - love I will always believe in. I love the love.
It is the best.
"Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within."
