Hey people! It's Vira and I am here to tell you I have come to the conclusion that my emotions are a scam!
Yup, total scam.
The thing is this, while I am usually quite sensitive, I am not really an emotional person but there are times when
I usually get all emosh at weddings or while watching wedding scenes on TV. I don't know why. I really do not know why...
Just the other day, I was watching 'Queen Sugar' and sweet aunt Vi was getting married to her love, Hollywood. It was beautiful,
I got all emotional and welled up...and let it flow.
Then I remembered how these emotions betrayed me on my own wedding day!
See, because I have a history of crying at other people's weddings, I was sure I would cry at mine. I told my Maid of honor to standby with tissue and blotting paper so I can clean my tears while making sure the money, sorry, I mean make-up on my face does not wipe off.
And off we went, all dolled up, waiting for the vows; my cue to cry.
Right?
Nope, no right...
I did not cry...at all!
It was waaaay after the wedding ceremony that this occurred to me and I came to the conclusion that my emotions are indeed a scam.
What in the name of Judas Iscariot was that?
My emotions betrayed me!
*wipes lone tear*
How can someone who has cried at other people's weddings not cry at hers? Got me thinking...
Is this me?
Is me be this?
Whattapun?
My people, I have cried at weddings that I did not even know the bride and the groom.
NO, I did not gbo and ya jor, I was invited.
Well, the same emotions eventually realized they were supposed to be active and got to work when I did not send it message.
And so I cried when I least expected to.
I cried when normal human beings with emotions that are not scam would not.
So, yeah, this is the story of how my emotions betrayed me on my wedding day.
How about you? Do you cry at weddings? Did you cry at yours? Do you think you will cry at yours? Please gist me...I cannot be the only cry cry here.
