I recently attended a wedding where the bride and groom shared beautiful vows under the chuppah.  Both of their words were poignant, but the bride’s words landed especially powerfully for me.

The bride offered that in general she is nervous. She is anxious. She is a worrier.  She is nervous about money. Nervous about her career.  Nervous about where they are going to live, what they are going to do.  Nervous about health.  But, she said, the one thing she has never been nervous about is marrying her beloved.  She always knew that marrying him was just right, a rare oasis in an otherwise anxious world.
