.or.ori and I got married a year ago!
My Or, Shosh,
I struggled to write this vow—this wedding vows is from me to you. I was afraid that I couldn’t write about love—about our love. How can I describe the abstract and immense thing that drives us?
So, I divided it into six chapters. The only thing that connects them is you, me, and us.
Chapter 1
“Darkness and Light” -
There is a dichotomy of fire and water within me. Sometimes, I am cynical, pessimistic, and skeptical. But when we are together, suddenly, I believe in fairies, mermaids, angels, and divine forces. Those will save you, me, our family, our land, and the world.
Carl Jung said, “One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.”
Together, you and I, every sunset and sunrise, you are the sun, and I am the moon, each a balancing force of light and darkness within us. We roll through the world like a ball, growing and inflating through our love and shared memories. We hold onto each other and can face anything that comes our way.
I am strong with you because you allow me to speak to the darkness without fear and enable the light within me to shine.
Chapter 2
“God” -
Faith is a complex matter for me. I would like to know that we are on one of our journeys together, have already experienced such journeys, and will experience more in future lives or in other reincarnations.
Simply put, I prefer that faith occupies a place in my consciousness only for the chance that we will be together even after death. I just want more of you. And I am less concerned about fate”, destiny, or coincidences.
But it’s hard to explain what exists between us. I have never experienced such a strong connection. It is God. We are God. I believe in things that challenge my rational and skeptical mind thanks to you.
