It’s Wedding
Week! Ghost gets married tomorrow. I can’t believe it.
Over the
course of this week, I’ve been giving much thought to Ghost, Efed, and the
fantastic connection that the three of have managed to maintain from childhood
through now. I know it’s a bit unusual for siblings to be so close, especially
when we all are leading such vastly different lives. Somehow we’ve managed to
make it work, and it’s no secret I count these two as my best friends.
Even
though he’s been engaged for months, and the wedding preparations have been in
full swing for a while, I find it baffling that Ghost is getting married … not
because he’s an ogre or something, but because well – Ghost getting married is
sort of like the culmination of a long line of progress. It means that he’s
managed to achieve much of what he’s wanted in this life. It’s been a treat and
a joy to watch him go from doing the things he used to do to living the find of
life he has now, and even though it’s not always the way I would live, it’s
what makes him happy. So this week, I’ve allowed my mind to drift back to fun
little moments that he and I have shared over the years, and I’ve realized that
along with Efed, it’s likely no one is ever going to know me quite like he
does.
That he has the opportunity now to marry his best friend is a comfort to
me; it means that he’s forever going to be taken care of, that he’ll have
someone by his side, that he’ll be loved and safe. It’s fabulous, really, to
think that he’s found his Forever. If only we are all so blessed.
