 Observations from my godson’s wedding.

Some funny—some just hmmm???
Why is it that the single “drunk” girl always wants to dance with the “married” men?
Hmmm?
Why is it that you pay all this money for people to come together and most stay outside and smoke all night?
Hmmm?
Why is that the only ones who stay on the dance floor… are the kids? The young ones!
Hmmm?
Why is that you can stay up all night, going from the fridge to your bathroom back to your recliner, but… a 3 minute song makes you feel like you’ve run a marathon!
Hmmm?
Why is it that… some people have to get drunk just to have a good time they won’t remember and will be sick from… in the morning?
Hmmm?
Why do some people just sit and watch…and never join in on the fun…and then walk out and say “we had such fun that night!” Really? WE had fun? Are you sure?
Hmmm?
Why is there always that ONE person who surprises the mess out of you—like the “Big Boy” tipping 300 pounds maybe—but got on the dance floor and put them all to shame!

I thanked him and his wife for representing the “big boys” who can still bust a groove! And leave them wondering “how’d he do that?” love to surprise people!

Hmmm?
And finally… why is it that the “Reverand”, you know… that guy who officiated the wedding and married the couple—can drink water all night—and look like he’s having a better time than most of the returnees to the bar? The DJ said “Reverend, I do believe you outlasted all of them—and I watched—you were only drinking water! I like your style!”
Reverend(me) turned to DJ and said “Jesus walked among them—HE never became them, but HE never removed Himself from them…we have to live the life in front of others!”
DJ replied—“What church do you go to? Sounds like somewhere I would feel welcomed!”

Points2Ponder  Why do “some” people need “some” thing to have “some” fun and others… just have fun without needing “some” thing?

I promise…this is the last in the series called“Shane and Jess Get Married” but…

I did find it interesting to observe all the people who made a beeline for the open bar—just to get themselves “ready for fun!”
And then there’s the others… who would tell everyone what a FUN time they had—but, you saw them just sitting there all night long!
And then there’s me—100% real and ready for life to the MAX!
I got out there with my forever friend Sandy, the mother of the groom, my godson—and we danced until we thought we were going to have a heart attack—
And that was after about a 3 minute song!
When did songs get so long?
And why does it seem like I can walk for over an hour—a good exercise, we are told—but I about bust an artery just staying in motion for 3 minutes on the dance floor?
I came back to the table, and I said “Bella, take my pulse—I might be having a heart attack!”
She said, “No, you’re just realizing you’re not as young as you act like you are!”
So true…
But my other godson Chris sent me a text this morning saying “Had a blast with you Saturday night godfather—you were the life of the party!”
And I had to admit—I really was --- and that’s the only way to live!
I watched my godson dancing with his four daughters, and then with his mom and then with his bride…
But the dance that made me laugh so hard tears ran down my legs?
Seeing my two godsons, Chris and Shane, dancing together that “Bill Cosby signature move” with hands at the side, acting like flippers—that was good for the soul!
And I had to admit—I wouldn’t have missed this for the world!

I’m Just… Reflecting on -- Life!
