A Perfect Match

perfect_match

As June is traditionally a wedding month, and as I prepare for the upcoming nuptials of my dear Mandi Roo, and as New York welcomes marriage equality to its list of bragging rights, I cannot help but ponder this notion of partnership. Love takes many forms these days, and we need to take it where we can get it and express it as best we can. So, as I wonder what exactly this whole love thing is all about, in walks my new favorite couple. With their children grown and their nest now empty, they chose matching purple Converse as a creative token of solidarity. They glow with happiness, comfort, and mutual support every time I see them, but, most importantly, they know how to celebrate the simple marks of love in their partnership.

Well, there’s a lesson in there for us, Nashville. Whether you’re demonstrating your adoration with matching Chucks or with a wedding band, let’s make this the summer of love.

xoxo
