You Don't Have to Notice the Decor at a Wedding, But If You Do: Appreciate the Romance; Don't Make Fun of It

 Let's start by asking:

Do people notice the effort put into wedding decorations? 

I would say most do not. I did everything I did at my wedding for me, because I am a creative person and it was fun. I knew doing it to get praise could be a huge let down, so I was surprised by the number of people who paid attention and complimented my decorations and ideas.  Upon seeing each table had different themed decorations, a few people told me they walked around to look at all the tables.  Like my husband said, it gave people a reason to walk the room!


With that Addressed, it being understood most people don't absorb the wedding decorations, I now ask:

Have you ever made fun of cute, romantic decorations at a wedding? Can lovey dovey stuff ever be too much at a wedding celebration?!

First off, to make fun, you did notice them, but instead of complimenting things, you made it a joke. Anybody over twelve-years-old should appreciate the love story of the couple and find cutesy stuff "awww" romantic, not "eeew" sappy. Well, at least the females in attendance. ;-)  Most guys fall into the top question of not even noticing the decor. My point is, if you do notice, the decorations must be good enough to be attention getting, so how can you snicker at the bride and groom, right during the reception nonetheless? Even younger adults. If they want to be treated as mature, they should be able to appreciate some sappiness at a wedding then, or at least keep it to themselves during the wedding instead of laughing about it with their friends.

Weddings are meant to be sappy. They tell the love story of the bride and groom. It is the one day that is truly just about them, the one day they'll feel comfortable to share some deeper insights about their relationship.  So, enjoy these romantic and personal offerings. Smile, remembering how it felt at your wedding, or daydream about finding someone you'll feel so in love with that you will want to display expressions of your love like that on your wedding day. Feel honored these sentiments were shared with you. Not being embarrassed to shows the comfort the couple has in their relationship. Being content enough to share such intimate things is a sign of a true love.

Derailing Vs. Getting on Board with Theories of Tiffany Valiante's Death

This post is about "Mystery at Mile Marker 45," the first episode in season 3 of Netflix's Unsolved Mysteries, which tells the story of Tiffany Valiante, a recent high school graduate with a promising future, who was suspiciously struck by a train after disappearing from outside her New Jersey home in July 2015. It is assumed one has already viewed the episode before reading my thoughts and opinions on this case. SPOILERS will be given!   Fact or Fiction?  I have seen several people discussing supposed facts that were left out of the episode, alleging Tiffany had stolen from her parent's bank account in the past, that CPS visited regarding abuse by her mother in the months prior to her death, and supposedly an axe recovered as evidence near the scene was lost by investigators before testing. Although I did find her autopsy report with the little bit of searching I did, I only saw this rumored information on gossip websites or other people talking on threads how they ...

Whoever is trying to bring you down is below you; you are above whomever is trying to bring you down

Not sure which version of this quote I like better, but I do believe it's a valid statement.  If someone is trying to bring you down; whether it's by spreading false rumors about you behind your back, publicly attacking something of yours, or even just giving you constant criticism to your face; I think most people would agree then they are clearly below you in their moral standards and personal ethics, not to mention their levels of integrity and kindness! And, if someone is more focused on bringing you down instead of on their own work or personal goals, it probably does indicate you are above them — or at least, that they believe you are somehow ahead of them and thus, view you as competition to eliminate.  Whichever way you look at it, it's unfortunate there are people like that. Too many people turn things that shouldn't be into a competition when it would serve us all better to help and support one another instead — or at least to just conc...

"It's Good to Know Who Hates You, and It's Good to be Hated by the Right people"

  I had to think about the second part of this one a bit, but I do concur. \   Haters tend to hate people they feel intimated or threatened by, in competition with, or envious of. Usually, there is no real reason for their hatred, other than those people are different than them; whether in looks, personality, interests, or any other qualities. In acknowledging that, if people are hating on someone who tries to be kind and respectful to all, somebody truly altruistic in their helping of others, it is fairly safe to conclude the haters lack some — or all — of those genuine qualities in themselves. Therefore, the good person is being hated by the "right" people in that they are hated simply because they are not hateful like the haters, nor would they ever want to be filled with hatred like them in exchange for their not being hated! This not only reveals the haters for whom they really are, but also confirms the good person the "hatee" is. Thus, in this case, it is ac...
