So yesterday at work, my coworker Sarah sent me a link to a you tube video. It was Chris Medina's American Idol audition. Now I don't know if any of you have seen this video or heard about this amazing honorable man. If you haven't you need to watch the video link ill post below.
Anyway, the story is that Chris's fiancée was in a terrible car accident on October 2, 2009, just two months before they were to get married. She suffered severe brain trauma and they still have yet to walk down the aisle. She has made remarkable progress since her accident and it was amazing to hear what he says about her and his never ending love. It really is a reality check that tomorrow is never guaranteed and we should say we love others as much as possible and be as happy as we can because it is so important.
I have been trying to live my life better ever since I found out some friends of mine from HS have passed in a car accident and this just justifies my philosophy that I don't want to put off tomorrow. I want to do everything I can to make others feel special and appreciated and loved today.
Seeing this video also made me think about Josh and our relationship. Thinking about how hard it would be for me if this happened to him today, since we have two months to go till our wedding day. To think about how much I love him and that my commitment to him is unbreakable and I know it would be so tough, but I would stick by him no matter what. I hope others who have recently gotten married or are thinking about getting married, really think about the commitment because you never know what God will place in front of you, and your commitment and love will be tested.

Another day closer to Friday and one more week closer to the wedding. I am so excited to marry the love of my life and my soul mate. I still get butterflies every time I think and talk about him. He is such, such, a great person and I am honored he chose me.
