What’s your favorite time of day?
The time when I am alone when all is silent all around me. It is only my favourite when life is its normal busy self. If I am alone for too long, then that is just too much of a good thing.

The most special day of the summer. The wedding day. Not mine, but that of my nephew. He found the right girl, she found the right boy.
After the stress of the buildup, the day finally comes. Family and friends, coming together in celebration. Beautiful surroundings, and a beautiful couple. A splash of rain can’t spoil this day.
But it is just the beginning. It’s been eight years since my special day, and we are not just a couple anymore. Now we are a team, working, playing and growing together.
I can’t wait to see what the future holds for my team and for the newlyweds. Every day is a new beginning, with a new path to follow.
