One of my very best friends ever got married last Saturday. Joshy... (even his nickname proves his love for me. He hated it at first... when I started calling him Joshy that is, now it's how half of my world knows him).
I confess when Joshy first told me he was engaged I had mixed feelings. I was completely thrilled for him, I knew how he REALLY wanted to find someone, but at the same time, I know what happens when male friends get married... and it's how it should be... but it changes the relationship forever.
Josh made a point of ensuring Maria and I became friends. He invited me out for dinner with them, over to his house, encouraged us to do things together (6 a.m. at the gym can bond anyone).. and it worked. I'll love her forever. Very wise man that Joshy, he married an amazing woman.
Josh went back to work yesterday. Today, he called and asked me to go to lunch.
We sat on the plaza and chatted about the wedding, about our friends, about his family... it was almost like life hadn't changed. A little miracle I needed today... to know that even though our relationship has changed the fundamentals of it haven't.
There's just something about a friend who really loves you...
