Hello! What's crackalacking today? Sounds good. Me, I'm crushing this day. Grocery shopping and errands done by noon. Not bad. Not bad at all. Anyhow. I'm not sure where to go with this today, but I am compelled to share here today. Yesterday, I attended my in-laws wedding. Neat-o. I'm truly not big on weddings. Like, I really don't dig them. But, it's not about me. So, I went with a right on attitude and tried very hard to on,g say things that would be constructive to any kind of a relationship. And surprise surprise, I ended up, making peace with my brother-in-law. Honestly, neither one of us could remember why we "hated" each other. Not overly sure what caused that, but, we both did the right thing and spoke about progress moving forward and we both made admends to each other. Really, it was a freeing feeling. Both of us spoke about how the tension is no longer existent with us and, when I reached in for a hug, he wanted to kinda step back and reached out for the handshake. I said, a handshake doesn't signify a re-start my friend, but a hug will. He smiled and says okay will, and big ol' hugs were had. Okay. That's a great start to rebuilding on my wife's side. Not too mention, their ceremony was just simply beautiful.
Before the ceremony started, I was working on drawing on some inner chi. I wondered, if I would be able to tap into others chi and try to "see" the energy levels of this wonderful day. So, I took a few minutes and closed my eyes and started focusing. Within a few moments, things were flying. And I had not felt something like that seeming in forever. It was an amazing little experience. So, I tried all I could to stay engaged in the chi levels and still be attentive to the proceedings at hand. It wasn't hard to feel those levels skyrocket during their vows. I had fun with it. It was amazing how warm my hands and feet became, but not hot. How tingly they became, but not sore. Not to have purpose, but to just be a part of. Fantastically Amazingly cool!
And just an off the marker thought here. Something to chew on. My sister in law, is one of the neatest people I ever did meet. She lives a way of life that me and my family are striving for. She's......awesome! She is one of the most humble, thoughtful person I've ever met. Anyhow, we were talking afterwards around the kids and she looks at us and says, "I don't mean to mean anything, but, if women are so "equal" why are we still given away at "our" wedding? If no one "owns" me, why am I taken by my husband in matrimony? Just a thought." I was utterly dumbfounded and vapourlocked. I seriously stood there, semi-drool look, going what just happened here?? Finally I said. "Wow! That's a thought and a half!" So, that blew my mind! I had never seen it or even thought of that perspective!
