As I wrote yesterday, I wanted to tell you about the reason why we made this short trip to Germany now. We will be back in India for Christmas and we are not going to travel around here. We actually came to sign a paper.
Ramona and I met on 2nd April 2007. Two years later – and a few days – we decided to celebrate our love with an Indian wedding on 7th April 2009. Today, another one and a half years later, we celebrated our love again, this time here in Germany. This morning we made our marriage official by signing the wedding document. For us it is not really important to have this paper, it doesn’t change our love and our lives will not change a lot after this day. It may get a bit easier in all bureaucratic questions.
Ramona can stay longer at a time in India, we can look after the Ashram in a better way and some more details that just fit very well now. Our story however was written on the 2nd April and this will also remain the day that we will celebrate as our anniversary.
Nevertheless we had a wonderful day and this official wedding was a good excuse to celebrate. Even although it was on very short notice, some close friends could come to meet us in Wiesbaden. We had a great lunch with sweets that we had brought from India, we talked and laughed, took pictures and had fun.
There are many friends who may now wonder why they have not been invited but you know, whenever we will be close to you, I will find some reason to celebrate again!
Now we will go back to our friends and guests to enjoy a little bit more.

Dear Jess and Tanya, Nice to hear from you. Wish you are enjoying India. Hope to see you both soon. Love
It’s kind of weird that a paper document can signify so much. When two people are in love, they can consider themselves together forever, with or without the signed document… but our laws and governments require this paperwork.
I don’t know if people in India hear much about Las Vegas in USA, but it is called “Sin City.” It is known for having small little chapels where people can get married to people they don’t even know, in the middle of the night when they are drunk and partying. Of course it’s easy to divorce afterward… but what a ridiculous place! I don’t get it…
