Put A Ring On it

I was listening to Beyonce's new single 'Single Ladies (Put a Ring on it)', and in the midst of imagining her gyrating in front of me, I just kinda realised that quite a few (ok, a LOT) of my cousies and close friends have all tied the knot this very year.

In fact ,as I'm typing this, one gal pal is getting hitched and I'm due to attend her wedding reception in a couple of hours time.

The ST just had this article coincidentally, today, about couples rushing to tie the knot to coincide with the holiday season and there seems a genuine attempt to out-do each other in the grandeur stakes.

Who has the biggest carat diamond ring? Who's wedding gown is most crowd-wowing and expensive? Who's wedding ball is the most extravagant? Who's entrance is the most fair-tale worthy awe-inspiring?

Indeed, who can put up the flashest and most spellbounding show of love and (love for) money.

Weddings these days, it's hardly about the love any more. Really.

It's about the most beautiful bride. The Prince Charming, his bride and her Cinderella-moment.

If you can afford it, only Haute Couture will do.












Q.... Divorce rates are up. So Fu*ck it, its all about the dress.

Knot Tying. Not Tying.

A beautiful and Significant other, who's a perfect juggle of family ties and career. :)

A robust,creative and intelligent Son. :)

A pretty, resourceful and well-mannered Daughter. :)

Yes, I want a beautiful Family. One Day. :)


I've many a friend getting married or are about to. And I 'm so happy for them.

Whatta' bout Your's Truly?

:Op

If career-career-career is all I ever live and breathe for ... time is of the essence. So much.

I love kids but wouldn't have the energy to bring them up if I'm already an old man!

So when is a Later ... Too Late?

When it was initially too bright and you can't see clearly. Then, this Special Someone walks into your life and darkens it all and you have only this person in sight... you feel cozy, comfortable and intimate. Then the Ring appears and you see the possibility. After awhile, a Diamond Ring appears and you're ready. But you'll have to take that moment there and then! Because if you let the ellipse pass, it's over. And it'll be a long while before another Special someone comes along.

Still,certainly not by the Big 3-0 for me. And your read it hear.

But One day. Wink*

Holy Matrimony; together, we'll tie it all together.:)
