Real Romance

I came across this short video today and had to share it.

Listen to what he says--and how he says it. It's quite lovely.

Iceberg poet?

Sigh. It is quite lovely.

Isn't it? Although I wanted to pluck that hat off her head so we could see her face a bit more. She seemed to be hiding behind that hat. Was she overwhelmed by what he was saying, or was she a little embarrassed that what she said was no where as romantic as what he did? Maybe she's shy? I can't see someone doing what she does being shy, though.

I wanted to take off her hat too, I wondered if it had significance.

[authoress_susan]

You're right--the hat may have a special meaning. Perhaps they met because of the hat. Plus that was on/near Antarctica. Maybe she was just freezing.

Oh, that was gorgeous!! That has to rank as one of the best marriage vows I've ever heard, and as it came him vice her, I'd rank it near the top!

*sniff* I agree.

Here is what he said:

Molly, you are my friend, my lover, my muse, my siren whose song reached me through the stormiest of seas. You are my everything. I want to be the person who doesn’t need to ask you how you feel because he just knows, but asks you all the same. I want be the person who encourages you to be yourself and all that you can be, who knows you entirely and loves you completely. I want to be the person you wake up with and give your first beautiful smile to and whose arms you fall asleep in. I want our days filled love and friendship, and live to the fullest. I want to be the person I can be with you love, guidance, and understanding. I want to evolve with you. I want to grow old with you. I want to look at you one day and see a life that I have loved and for you to see the same in me.

Guh!

Wow, very lovely, moving vows.

[authoress_susan]

Yeah. He's one in a million I suspect.
