  friday,  july 16th,  2004 i was witness to the most beautiful celebration of love i have ever seen. nbsp;  yes i am a cheese ball,  especailly after this!
 my sister,  alicia,  and her fiance,  ben,  made& nbsp;
their commitment& nbsp; official on july 16th. nbsp;  it was beautiful,  elegant,
 memorable,  and emotional. nbsp;  everything you would want and expect on a wedding day. nbsp;  &
nbsp; one thing that you wouldn't expect,  however,  was for them to see& nbsp; eachother from sunrise to sundown.
nbsp;  throw tradition and superstition to the wind. nbsp;  i wonder if when you find that special person you just know it. nbsp;  i sound so cliche right now but seriously.
nbsp;  they only knew eachother for maybe 8- 9 months before they were married. nbsp;  but i know for a fact that they were planning their wedding and lives together& nbsp;
from the first time they met. nbsp;  its funny cause you can be with someone for years with no future commitment plans,  break away from that deadend relationship and end up finding a love that& nbsp; you never knew could existed.
nbsp;  fate has a funny way of testing us. nbsp;  well i think it is important to listen to your gut and follow whatever path you believe is right at the time. nbsp;  fate will always show you the way.
nbsp;  cheese! nbsp;  i just can't help it. nbsp;  final note:
 i am extremely happy for my sister to have found such a wonderful,  decent person to share her life with and i hope everyone i love will find the same happiness. nbsp;
