A sad thing to do.

I am happy. I love my fiancee, and in six days, he will be my husband. He is a good man and I am lucky to have him. I am excited and scared and nervous and anxious about all the things that we have to get done before Saturday. But there is something else weighing on my mind that I need to get off my chest. A few people decided that they would bet on how long my marriage, and a few others, would last. They gave me three months. I thought that's a sad thing to do. Hoping other peoples marriage will fail.

I feel sad for those who feel it necessary to condemn other people's happiness. They must feel awfully sad themselves. I am sorry for their loneliness, and hope that the judgment they have used does not fall on themselves, when the do find someone to be with.

It also makes me think these "friends" do not know me at all. I'm not a quitter. I don't stop just because things are not turning out the way I thought they would or should. Adam is a good man and I would not be marrying him if I didn't know him very well, or if I thought that it would fail. I look forward to eternity with the man I love, and nothing, and no one will get in the way of that.

Hey Christy it is your cousin Lisa, I hope you don't mind me looking at your blog. I found it on Beckys blog. I can't believe how mean people are. I think you and Adam are an eternal couple and never think anything less than that. I think if anyone is mean enough to say what they did that they are just jealous. I hope everything went well with your wedding, I bet you were a beautiful bride. You should post pictures when you have a chance.

You seem like a great couple. I wish I could've made it to the wedding. Luke had to work that day and it's pointless to come down with just Bailee since I can't bring her in the temple. I'm sure you looked gorgeous.
