the red and blue of me

I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadows If I fail, if I succeed At least I live as I believe No matter what they take from me They can't take away my dignity Because the greatest love of all Is happening to me I found the greatest love of all Inside of me The greatest love of all Is easy to achieve Learning to love yourself It is the greatest love of all

In life, we are faced with different challenges and decisions every single day.
Some of them are easy and some are very hard. Hard decisions are usually the ones that define you and show who really are – your values, beliefs and morals.

I was faced with one of those defining moments this week. It did not take me long to make the hard decision since I knew it was the right thing to do. At the end of the day it only caused me relief, inner peace and joy.

The song above summed up the feeling and thoughts that I had… No matter what they take from me, they can’t take away my dignity. If I fail, if I succeed, at least I live as I believe…

I bought a wedding dress! I finally did! It’s a Maggie Sotero Couture A-line organza dress in ivory adorned with lots of Swarovski crystals! It still needs some alterations – chest area needs to be taken in a bit and the bottom needs to be hemmed. (Yeah, I am not blessed with height and big you-know-what!) It’s funny how buying a dress actually makes me feel more of a bride. I was pro renting a dress before and anti buying one but now my ideas have turned. I actually don’t even recommend renting a wedding dress anymore! Having your own dress in your hands and kept in your own home will complete your feeling of being a bride. The bride in me came to life! I love it!!!
