Mr. and Mrs. Kyle Hayes
Kyle Hayes was my trumpet section leader during my freshman and sophomore years in high school. He’s truly an amazing person with an incredibly bright future in front of him.
Today, I watched him exchange wedding vows with Jennifer Brown. Jennifer and Kyle have known each other for nearly a decade, and they truly belong together. I could see the love between them.
The whole evening was beautiful. The whole time, I couldn’t help but stare at Kyle and his new bride. The whole concept of marriage completely floors me… and I cannot wait until I am at the point where I can exchange wedding vows with a woman I have come to love more than anything else.
Now that I’m home and reflecting on the whole day, I’m left with kind of a bittersweet feeling… I feel somewhat confused as to where my heart is right now. I really want the answers to fall into my lap. I want the clouds to part and God’s hand to come out, holding the woman I’m going to marry… and I want Him to place her in my arms.
But, alas, it doesn’t work that way. I keep telling myself that I need to be patient, and when the time is right, everything I’ve ever dreamed of and more will be in my hands. And though it kind of sucks at the moment, I know that having to wait to find true love will make it mean more to me in the end.
