It was my best friend wedding, yesterday. The day when the two family unites as one. The day when two people tied their knots to commit to a long life together. And surprisingly, the day was magical. 

I never expect to be fully in tears but happy. Fully in tears that, the wedding is a holy ceremony to pursue the life journey for Allah. And happy seeing my best friend finally completes her deen and her life (with future daughter and son). I saw that she really deserved the warmth and joy of the wedding. Her eyes never lied about how long she has waited for this time, when it was finally a day for her to be the prettiest and the happiest woman. Everything on her wedding was perfect. I can see her reflections in the decor she chose, simple and yet very beautiful flower garden, the concept that she arranged, private and exhilarating, the places that matched with her ambience, and the most importance is her looks, her wedding dress and make up, she wasss really undoubtedly beautiful. She was shining and radiating her true energy and sincere for her man, her love, such a lucky man. 

I reflect on many things yesterday. To be fully believe in Allah plan and decisions. To be grateful of what life brings us. To be my true self. To respect all of the family choice. To give the best I can to the more meaningful journey of life.

Seeing her, always reminds me that I have to be grateful in everything. Although the journey is hard. Although I had to fall and cry. I have to always get up and get the life I want to have. Her perseverance is beyond from what I usually bear that I believe her wedding is such a tile of her previous perseverance that brings her in the point. I am really grateful knowing her as my best friend. I really learn much from her. 

May Allah bless your marriage Retno, my dearest, tough, and sincere best friend. May your marriage will always be full of joy and blessing.
