I'm being bombarded by marriage this week. I'm not really sure what to think about it.
First, I know three couples who got engaged this week, and another girl who had her bridal shower this weekend. I am very happy for all parties involved, but I am so far from being married that it is strange to think about.
Second, I went to this... party? Sure, party, at a fine jewelry store this week, because a friend told me it would be fun. It was entertaining, but everyone there DEFINITELY had marriage on the brain. I watched six grown women demolish a cake in 2.5 seconds, hoping to find a .5 carat diamond ring, and came to the conclusion that getting married makes people crazy.
Third, in both of my institute classes this week, we discussed marriage. That's it. Everything marriage. We even discussed the awkward feeling I get inside whenever this topic comes up. It's normal, it's ok to feel weird about it... but get married anyway! I'm sure we'll end up discussing it all at some point tomorrow during church as well, because we always do...
All of this makes me mildly uncomfortable... just so everyone knows.
