“Wedding Promise”

By  Lisa Dansberger - FL

 

 

Desciption of Submission: “These are the words spoken, promises made between my wife and I at our wedding ceremony.” - Lisa

 

 

Why Karen and Melody Liked It:  We liked hearing the vows between a lesbian couple.  It was very sweet.

 

 

 

Lisa: 

I am here today to pledge my love and commitment to you Catalina and to celebrate this with God, our family, and our friends for this is the only acknowledgement I feel worthy of love, no documents or politician approval would do.

 

God must have a plan for us, She had you walk into my life at timing only perfect enough to be done by her.  From day one you captured my attention.  I had never met such an interesting person before.  The spiked, dyed hair and tattoos were not even the first things that caught my eye but the confidence in which you walked and spoke intrigued me.  I knew I had to learn as a person but I never dreamed that I would learn so much from just one.  Catalina you have been a great source of inspiration to me, you have an amazing drive and an immeasurable strength.  I needed to know more and today I am here to tell you I still can’t wait to learn with you and about you more everyday.  With you there are no impossibilities, I have learned that even if you are just five foot you will jump mountains, even on the saddest day you find hope, you even have the courage to speak when most wouldn’t.  , When I see no route you find a way to make a path, you can take the worst day at work and turn it into a poem, you smile when it rains and you embrace the sun.  I admire you for this.

 

Today and everyday I offer you my hand and heart, my smiles and tears, my good qualities and the ones that need improvement.  Most importantly I offer you my loyalty, my friendship and the willingness to grow with you as individuals and as a couple.  Through debt, Nina clutter, nightmares, sickness, and struggles I promise you I will be there for you.  Through prosperity, cleaning binges, dreams that make you smile, health, and successes I promise you I will be there for you.

 

            I am excited about our future and I look forward to we days, Catalina birthday months, cuddling, preening, and taking care of our children.  Being by your side has always brought me a sense of peace and happiness so this I ask of you:  Catalina, Te amo, to quieres ser mi esposa y compartir toda to vida conmigo?

 

 

Catalina:

            I am here today not because of a law or because it’s the next step I am here because I have been given an answer and a blessing by God.  Two years ago I asked God to help me straighten out the mess inside of me so I could straighten out the external messes.

 

            Lisa, in the most unexpected pf places, I was blessed with the answer to my prayers.  You were placed into my life and from that very moment without even talking I loved you.  I didn’t know why and for a time I tried to push it away.  But angels are not to be messed with.  For that is what I consider you, my angel.  The person who listened to my great sadness, who laughed with me, who helped bring peace into my life.  A peacefulness that let me find the courage to understand myself, help myself, and give of myself without regrets or sadness.

 

            Dios gave me an angel called Lisa to show me that what I needed was inside of me and around me all along.  With you I was able to create a home and renew my relationship with my family.

 

            Who knew a German and a Colombian would be so good.  I am thankful that I was given an opportunity to see how wonderful it is.

 

            Lisa I commit to you as a soul mate, a friend and a partner.  Through all the times that we will disagree, through negative and positive bank accounts, through the fun twists and turns that our families bring, through bad children, through snotty tissues and gym marathons but most of all through every single hurdle , achievement, disappointment, and confusion.  I am sweetly ecstatic to begin a whole new adventure with you filled with a lifetime of living, loving, and learning.  Lisa, e amo con todo mi Corazon.
