I’m at my cousin’s wedding
The majority of the time I’ve spent with my cousin over the years happened in Canada where we’d jump off cliffs into a lake
One thing that’s great about jumping off cliffs with your cousins and other family is the absence of fear
As you’re rushing towards the water you don’t feel the fear of pain & death
Because your family is there
You trust them to take care of you if anything goes wrong
You feel safe in a simple uncomplicated way
That’s what a marriage is
Or should be
A simple bond of safety & love as you jump again & again off the uncertain cliff that is life.
