Ora Labora

One year ago. It was the happiest weekend of my life. There were families, friends, flowers, music, rings, and promises. There was joy and excitement. There was a dress, suites and ties. There was nervousness, and yet there was peace. There were memories of the past fueling hopes for the future. It all felt so real.

And of course, there was love.

Now what? What’s left? From the list above, not much.

How could things have changed so profoundly in a year’s time?

Come, labor on. Who dares stand idle? Not I! Not I!

So for now I'll stop crying and start standing up straight again - and try to become whatever it is I'm supposed to be.
