Wedding Season

With the year coming to an end, it seems it’s a good time for people to get married. With many (almost all) of my friends, colleagues and relatives getting engaged/married in this period it is, by far, the greatest marrying season till date. Majority of my school / college friends are getting married with their sweethearts and many of my relatives are tying the knot too. Growing to an age of 26 is the perfect time to enter the new phase of life. And most of them have all of it sorted out. Marrying your childhood sweetheart is probably the greatest boon on this planet. Of all the things and times faced and shared together for so many years, marriage would be the ultimate goal. Things might even change after marriage (as they say), but atleast you are lucky enough to reach till this breakpoint.


Going to school and then accompanying them to college and probably even during pursuing the masters degree is quite a time together with each other. You might have had to bear a brunt of staying away for some time during the college or masters degree, but it is all worth it when the quarter life crisis comes to an end and you decide to accompany him/her to the next level in life and start an altogether new phase as the better half. All the quarrels, taunts, love bits, insecurities, wisdom, plans, promises will now get to the next level. Having cleared and sustained so many levels (read years) is certainly an advantage in the relationship. It does not mean that life will cease to be a challenge from now onwards, but companionship gives you that boost and courage to fight difficult times. When you have your better half with you, you are determined to stand against all the odds. And of course the wisdom of so many years of togetherness only adds to the morale support. You feel stronger day by day. It is great when your teenage love changes into a marriage.

With almost everyone getting engaged and married leaves us bachelors in the undying candid spirit of independence. But the feeling of comradeship with your loved one is, according to me, far better than the spirit of independence which cease in its joy with times to come. So cheers guys, congratulations for the new beginning all over again with the person you love. Wish your lives be full of joy and you stay together through the toughest of storms. Wish you all a happy married life.
