there was a wedding.

At the beginning of this summer my dad performed a wedding ceremony (for an Italian family I might add) and this was read at the end of it... I'm going to use it because it is so beautiful:

Nothing is more practical than finding God,
that is, than falling in love
in a quite absolute, final way.

What you are in love with,
what seizes your imagination,
will affect everything.
It will decide
what will get you out of bed in the morning,
what you will do with your evenings,
how you spend your weekends,
what you read,
who you know,
what breaks your heart,
and what amazes you with joy and gratitude.

Fall in love,
stay in love,
and it will decide everything.

-Pedro Arrupe, SJ
