I AM THANKFUL… THAT KUYANG AUGIE AND ATE NINI DECIDED TO WITNESS TO ME AND TO ALL OF US HERE PRESENT THAT MARRIAGE WORKS AMIDST THE PROBLEMS AND DIFFERENCES; THAT LOVE BECOMES MORE REAL IN WORSE TIMES THAN IN BETTER TIMES, IN SICKNESS RATHER THAN IN HEALTH, WHEN POORER THAN RICHER… THEY CELEBRATE NOT BECAUSE THEY HAVE A PERFECT MARRIAGE. THEY CELEBRATE BECAUSE AMIDST THE IMPERFECTIONS THEY STAYED AND STICKED IT OUT TOGETHER ALL THESE 25 YEARS.
