Last week I went with a friend to a bridal gown sample sale. We had exactly 20 minutes from the time they opened until we had to leave for work. I tried on only one gown but as soon as I saw it on the hanger I had a feeling it would “work” for me. I brought it to the dressing room and zipped it on and just like that, I saw a bride in the mirror.
I have pictures, of course, but I didn’t buy the dress. I didn’t want it hanging in my closet. I am not even sure how I feel about the pictures. I showed them to another friend who gasped when she saw them: “You became a kallah just like that! It should be so easy!” Amen.
