Speech

Part of my speech at the wedding reception last Saturday:

"Walking down the aisle in the ballroom just moments ago was when I finally faced the fact that my brother whom I grew up with is no longer a boy, but a man with full of hope, faith, sincerity and love to make a commitment many of us are still afraid to make. I am really proud to see the brother I grew up with, has become a man. To my loving brother Afiq, who has always been the person we all go to, when times are good and rough. My earliest memory about you was that we always stick together when we were kids. I remember that whenever I was scared, you would protect me. Until today. You always took care of me when our parents were not around. I remember that I cried so hard on my first day of school because I couldn’t find you around and you came to my rescue afterwards. Just as how you have always protected me, I promise that I will protect you just the same. I promise that I won’t tell anyone that you used to play with my Barbie dolls. There are many more memories which, as I grow up I realize how much I have always count on you as my brother, and that I could count on you no matter what the circumstances are. You have been the most amazing brother and I am truly blessed for that. No one can ask for a better brother. "

love, dreamer.
