I Felt Beautiful

I felt beautiful this night. 

Outwardly, yes. But most of all, inwardly. 

I could feel the changes that have been 

taking place somewhere deep in my soul.

They were rising to the surface this night. 

I felt confident and free spirited. 

Something about a whimsical, beautiful wedding

of a breathtaking bride- pure in

every sense of the word- that makes

you smile, soul to face.

She (the bride) truly was, is, breathtaking.

I will never forget her or her handsome 

groom that night... but more than that,

 I will never forget the "me"coming out.

 Broc smiled at me as 

we were dancing under the stars

and gorgeous mason jar lights...

 and in his eyes I could read what I was feeling...

the depression was gone that night, 

and the free spirited, lover of life he

married was back... and we were

truly enjoying life. 

We danced, took pictures, laughed, 

drank some scrumptious champagne,

(well, I did..."pastor Broc" didnt :))

and mingled with friends of a lifetime.

It was a night to remember. 

I can still picture it in my heart. 

And I will go back to that night

anytime I wanna give up. 

I felt beautiful, I am beautiful.

This is the journey I am traveling.
