The Least You Could Do

One of my dearest and oldest friends told me the other day that he is going to be getting married soon. I couldn’t be happier for him, if anyone I know deserves a happy marriage he does, but as most news does it made me reflect on some things. I started thinking about all of my friends and ex-lovers that are now married or about to be married and though I am insanely happy for all of them I couldn’t help but feel a little put off. No one could join some form of religious order requiring them to marry a god and live a life of celibacy secretly pining away for me for the rest of their lives? I mean, come on, my ego could have used that! When ever I ended a relationship they were destroyed, though of course we would either stay friends or try to pick the friendship up again over the years. As friends even though I gave little thought to it, I would watch or even help them move on becoming a stronger person with out my over powering influence exuding that much control over their lives. I am still extremely close with quite a few of these people, and I am very happy for them that they have moved on to lead a happier life. Still, some one could have gone off and lived a life of religious celibacy because I was too difficult to forget. I guess in a way we all want to be the one that is unforgettable, irreplaceable, even if we have moved on to a better happier lives ourselves.

In other news I am going to the opera tonight with a buisness associate. I am thrilled, to see Puccini sung live in Italian is an unforgettable sight.

Now it is off to the gym. Before that though, I tried a new product this morning that I have to say is absolutely amazing. It is called Soyrizo it tastes just like Chorizo except it is about 100 times less likely to give you a heart attack over years of use. Just had to share. Ta.
