Epilogue: fulfilling the dream
The voice is gentle, slightly Southern in inflection, a young man's soothing manner. As I waited for my beautiful bride, the sudden feeling of fulfillment made my stomach churn because not only will I marry the woman of my life, but I'll be able to make her dream come true…the dream that she'd first told me during Prom, when I asked her about her life's to-do-list. My friends…our teachers…and even my father showed up. It was the greatest feeling that I've ever felt…even up to now. As the wedding march began, I sighed a breath of confidence that everyone will be able to grasp my surprising decision. I looked down the aisle and I saw Kelly walking down with her father—to her request, her father will be the one to marry us. Her hair was slightly curled, and her wedding dress almost that of an angel's…she's perfect.
That was the best day of my life…and I know that it's the same for Kelly.
"Love is patient and kind, it is never jealous, love is never boastful or conceited, it is never rude or selfish, it does not take offence, nor is it resentful. Love takes no pleasure in others' sins but delights in the truth; it is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope and to endure whatever comes. Love does not come to an end. There are three things that last, faith, hope and love and the greatest of these is love."
Even after the passage of four years, I can still feel that the love I shared with Kelly. She will always be in my mind, in my heart, and most importantly, in my soul. She made me the person that I was today. From a sheltered youngster who's life is just based from bravados. To a self–giving man that I can say I am today.
Kelly saved my life. She taught me how to love—how to cherish and how to be faithful. As I began to close my eyes, then, open them again. I'm back to the present time. I'm twenty two years old. Living life the way that God wants me to live it, a man with pride and a man who loves others more than himself, As the sun finally set, I sighed, I could see the little puffs that my breath was making each time I inhale. The sudden spell of wind blew. I felt the love that Kelly and I shared….because our love is like the wind, I can't see it, but I can feel it….suddenly I was cut off by my reverie, when the love of my life stood next to me and leaned her head to my shoulder. I took her hand and kissed her lips softly.
"I love you…" I said. She smiled and looked at me with the same gleam that I still adored even after all these years. Truly love can endure whatever may come…
Finished?
