This at last...

One of the readings Mez and I chose for our wedding was a passage from Genesis where Adam, on seeing Eve exclaims "THIS AT LAST is flesh of my flesh and bone of my bones..." We would have been happy to leave the reading at just that line, cos it really summed up how we both felt.

I think though, that in life we are blessed with more than just one of those moments. Certainly my wedding day (or maybe it was the time I first laid eyes on Mez) was one, but today was definately another. On seeing my daughter for the first time, in a very sleep deprived state, one's mind wanders about all over the place. But most of all I felt a quiet, peaceful, contentment.

This at last is flesh of my flesh.
This at last is what I was created to do.
This at last is selflessness.
This at last is some idea of how God views me.
This at last is innocent beauty.
This at last is where my future lies.
This at last is a reason for not only living, but thriving (not that there weren't reasons before).

This at last...
This at last...
This at last... is Love.

I wonder what she's thinking...
