tomorrow

dear friend,

how have you been? we see each other almost everyday but i haven't asked how you are doing.

it's been a while since you told us that you were getting married. it was a shock to me, but i didn't want you to know. all i could say then was that i was happy for you. don't get me wrong. i am. but under the circumstances, my happiness was clouded over by my surprise. i just never thought that your announcement would be so soon.

the truth is, i am scared for you. scared that you might be going into a situation that you are not quite ready for. it's a big step. something that needs a lot of time to weigh things out and think things through. a lot of my other friends have told me that they are getting married. some of them already have. but i didn't have the same apprehensions with them like i have right now. please don't take this as if i do not have confidence in you. i do. in the little time that i have known you, i have learned that you are mature beyond your years. that you are loving and that you genuinely care for others. that you are thoughtful and you give so much of yourself. i guess i just wanted things to have happened in different circumstances.

i do stand by your decision and support you all the way. i pray that God will shower you with all of His blessings and love all the rest of your lives. tomorrow, you will be a husband and soon, a dad. take care of your family. love and cherish them as they are the most important blessings that God has given you. remember that i, together with your family and all of your other friends are here for you always. we love you.
