i guess, in a way, it's kind of expected... knowing the kind of guy he is, and it always seems that he's held out for her through the many years.
and i guess in a way, it doesn't make sense to me when some people change the people they like so quickly. because if that's so, i'd think that it's a matter of lust and infatuation, rather than love. for love perseveres, and holds on, and continues to despite circumstances that occur. and if it can fade away so easily, then how can that love last through the many decades that are to follow? what will happen in the times of hardship? in times when things seem bleak, in times when sacrifice is needed? a love that imitates Christ's love for the church.
i'm just sad that i can't celebrate their togetherness together with the family of God. to rejoice in them together, to participate in their progress, and witness the process coming to past.
