Bummer's best bud, Cecil, just called and announced he got hitched for the second time in this life! Cecil, I say to you and T what Rilke said to ODA and I on our big day (I know... it's been nearly over-used, but still a great, meaningful quote):A good marriage is one in which each partner appoints the other to be the guardian of his solitude, and thus they show each other the greatest possible trust.
A merging of two people is an impossibility, and where it seems to exist, it is a hemming-in, a mutual consent that robs one party or both parties of their fullest freedom and development.
But once the realization is accepted that even between the closest people infinite distances exist, a marvelous living side-by-side can grow up for them, if they succeed in loving the expanse between them, which gives them the possibility of always seeing each other as a whole and before an immense sky.
CONGRATULATIONS!
