Signatures of THE Paper

xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo


It had always been 'THE' day... THE day each and every woman catches the Cruel Anxiety Bug from... It's a known fact.... once you say "MARRIAGE", you internally switch ON the anxiety button... Oh and OF COURSE, that's when all the negativity hits.... with all its negative questions and looking for the easy way-out!

"Is it reeeaaaallllyyyyyyyyyy the right time?"
"Is he reaaaalllyyyyyyyyyyy what I reallllyyyyyy want? "



The MARRIAGE!!!!


As I quit my job (Easy) and got engaged (very Easy) , I started looking into whats next??? So we marry???? And then I move in with my Greek??? And then we move to Greece and start our long-awaited and day-dreamed-about LIFE?
(Oh God, i just felt a jump in my tummy as I wrote this sentence !)

Therefore, and after many many talks and discussions.... about THE DAY.... and THE MOVE.... we decided to play the game in ANOTHER way.... a completely different way.... and here are the points:

- This shall NOT be called a "Marriage"
- This will be our FIRST bulletpoint in our Lives that is yet to begin in the most positive of ways.
- This is a "paper" we are signing. The REAL Marriage will take place on a beautiful Greek Island.
- Andreas and I will do the MOVE, and WORK WORK WORK our way in Life, our new house, our new jobs, our new language, our new society.
- And NEXT year, 2012, THHAAATTTSSS when we will be able to SCREAM THE WORD OUT.... WE ARE MARRIEDDDDDD


















Having said that.....
On a beautiful Sunny Sunday Morning (March 27 to be exact) , Andreas picks me up from my house in Um Suqeim, where my Mom and Dad have been smiling so strongly from their hearts and blessing me dearly.

We get in his Volkswagen car.... Just the TWO of us.... placing our Greek CD and listening to our favorite Greek singer all throughout the one-hour drive.

We get into the Greek Embassy in Abu Dhabi, and try not to make so much noise as we take a couple of pictures of us outside, inside, and while we wait for our lovely Maria to be free for us.

And within a span of 3 minutes..... WE SIGN THE PAPER... that fully acknowledges us as a Civil Couple who will raise Civil Children in this society we live in ****sign sign sign sign**** and **** YESSSSSSS YES YESSSS *****











AAANNNNNNDDDDDD feeling as though this world can NOT take our positive energies; We drive away, just the TWO of us, back to Dubai.

Our parents, the Karams and the Constantinideses, are waiting for us in a Lebanese restaurant to hear about this Journey where we eat and talk and love.....

Then, we Head off to our friends, our real friends who also want to hear about our journeys, and give us some more love that we openly receive!

How does it feel????

It Feels Right and Natural !
