We Must Sometimes Find Ourselves Humbled

Today, I found a new wedding blog called A Practical Wedding. It's cute, it's real, and I like it. Scrolling through the pages and voyeuristically enjoying other peoples' weddings, I stumbled upon this post: Is Marriage An Economic Privilege?

I read it. All the way through. And I cried a little. I read the original NYT article she referred to and was saddened by it. I know that story so well. The blog author's point of view of the article and back story are so close to my own. It's humbling to read what she wrote because I know that it is true: marriage is a luxury good.

It's true for me.

I feel humbled and again, I know I'm really a lucky girl.
