Alteration of belief

Not long back when I was in school, Wedding was a treat. I was hyper excited because I could get into new clothes, meet my cousins. It was one occasion where I as a child, enjoyed to the maximum and gulped sweets till my throat. I still remember cousins and myself used to play who drinks maximum glasses of juice ,played hide and seek all over the wedding hall . The best part was when I used to collect goodies multiple number of times. As days passed by and I stepped into college my thoughts towards wedding changed. Now it looked like a compulsion. I had rebellious feelings towards wedding. Whenever there was a discussion on this topic, all I had were negative comments, disbelief. I always had one statement to end the discussion “I will never ever get married”. I always imagined that getting married was the easiest and the most obvious thing. Every person’s dream was to get married and live happily. It sounded quite lame and old fashioned and very usual. And I always wanted something different. I used to say that I will do something else and prove that wedding is not the thing!
In the same way I saw many of my friends getting married right in front of my eyes, saw them celebrate their wedding anniversary too. But none of these ever made me feel that I should also get into this relationship. But off late there is a weird feeling in my stomach which keeps popping out every now and then. I feel that I should also be married to the person whom I love. I have realized that getting married is not a boring task but it is making life more interesting. After all you will have a person with you for ever to listen to you. You will be able to express your love and share your life with this person. When you are happy there is someone to hug you and celebrate with you. When you are sad there is this person who can help you to come over it. You are never bored as you always have company to enjoy the moments including watching movies, making dinner, talking non sense, playing cards, going for walk etc. This person can make you feel like you are very important; can give you a purpose to live. Whatever happens in the day you always know that by end of the day there is a person at home who wants you and loves you. This person can be the best support system and make life too beautiful. This person can be the only one who believes in you and your dreams just the way you do. I realized it and seems like all my beliefs on wedding have gone upside down. Getting married is really not simple and you need to invest lot of effort. But in the end everything is worth it. I do not know when I will get into this but I am sure of this, now I know its worth.
