A new Beginning...

A new beginning…a sunrise is a new beginning, a birthday is a new beginning and even graduation is a new beginning…I simply love them!!
An engagement is a new beginning, and a couple of days ago it was my pre-engagement party which is called an "Erayet fat-ha". It is where we read the first sutra in the Quran as an agreement between both families to let them know each other better.

That night was the best night in my life, it was the beginning of a new era in my life with someone I respect and care about very much. That night meant that this is a start for our lifetime together. We were at my place in Zamalek, my uncles and aunts and of course my parents were there and my fiancée's family and relatives were there too.
We had so much fun, we took millions of pictures and all of them reflect the happiness that was in the air.

Marriage is a very strong bond that is formed not between couples but between the two families. I realized the importance of the engagement. It helps families bond, it helps them know each other better and helps them merge into one family at the end.

The two hearts that are combining in one need a solid ground to stand on before stepping their first steps in the road of life. This solid ground is derived from the loving, caring and supportive family they both have. My family is the most supportive and loving, I love them, appreciate them and appreciate the fact that they are open minded to a new experience and a new life with a person they hardly know.

I am determined that our families know each other more and that my fiancée, Ahmad, gets to be the 6th family member in my cozy loving family

Papy, Mummy, Youssef and Ismail my cosy loving family of 5....and Ahmad the no.6 ...

I love you and thank you for being in my life!!!
