Joseph and Bei Bei,
Your union is true. Your union is written. Your union is in faith and true love. You guys are meant to be!
Joseph, if there’s anything that I trust about you in the few years I’ve known you, it’s that your path and your ways are guided by a wisdom and intuition further reaching than yourself, and this guidance shines clear and bright to me in every interaction I’ve had with you since Archangeli’s phonology class back in 2017.
You move with clear intention and a powerfully honest presence. Your mundane, day to day actions are courageous in their orientation towards a greater harmony of mind, body, and spirit for yourself, those you love, and the whole world. All the many kinds of blessings from heaven are with you, whether it be your music, your healing hands, the ki that you move yourself and the world with, your connection to the trees and the waters, your extraordinary heritage, your mind which sings a song of discovery, deep and one-of-a-kind, and your open and loving heart. Your substance is far more unique, uplifting, and purposeful than any of us here will ever know, and in all this I knew, before I met her, that your love Bei Bei sings a song equal to you in beauty. Your way of life is far too honest, clear, and in love for someone any less to have joined you in marriage as Bei Bei joins you now. God has known the both of you, and in knowing you, he knew your union. He knew your harmony, and he knew your completion. So here we are!
To see you two now, coming together in the most powerful connection that humans can share, is reassurance to me that whatever is really going on in this crazy world we live in is actually far more excellent and inspiring than it may otherwise seem. When I see you two together, I see that God’s design is deeper, truer, freer, further, greater.
Bei Bei, Joseph is my brother across lifetimes, a special gift to me from a higher place, and I see that you ground him, and you lift him. You are clear water for him. You are his love. You center him, and he holds you. I see how your tranquility, your levity, and your honesty fortifies his heart. And to see you in this way for him is inspiring to me. I love you, and I love that you love him in the perfect and unique way that you do. You are his wife, and you are my family. Welcome, and thank you for being here.

Joseph 和贝贝：
你们的结合是真实的，是早已写下的。你们因信仰与真爱而走到一起。你们本就 注定属于彼此！
Joseph，在认识你的这些年里，如果说有什么是我始终深信不疑的，那就是：你 所走的道路、你行事的方式，一直受到一种超越你自身的智慧与直觉所引领。自 从 2017 年我们在 Archangeli 的音系学课上认识以来，在与你的每一次相处中， 我都能清晰而明亮地感受到这份引领。
你带着明确的心意前行，也带着一种无比真诚而有力量的存在感。即使是在最平 凡的日常生活中，你所做的每一件事也都怀着勇气，并始终朝向一种更大的和 谐——让你自己、你所爱的人，乃至整个世界，在身体、心灵与精神之间更加完整。 来自上天的种种祝福都与你同在：你的音乐，你那双能够疗愈的手，你用来推动 自己、也影响这个世界的“气”，你与树木和水流之间的连接，你非凡的血脉与传 承，你那颗唱着探索之歌的心——深邃而独一无二——还有你敞开而充满爱的内心。 你真正的本质，比我们在场的任何人所能完全理解的都更加独特，更能带给人力 量，也更有方向和意义。正因为如此，在见到贝贝之前，我就已经知道，你所爱 的人，也一定会唱着一首与你同样美丽的歌。你的生活如此真诚、清澈而充满爱， 因此，今天与你步入婚姻的贝贝，也必定拥有与你相称的灵魂。上帝一直认识你 们两个人。而在认识你们的时候，祂也早已知道你们会结合。祂知道你们之间的 和谐，也知道你们会如何使彼此变得完整。于是，我们今天就在此庆祝！
此刻，看着你们走到一起，进入人与人之间所能拥有的最深刻、最有力量的连接， 我感到一种深深的安慰。这让我相信，无论我们所生活的这个疯狂世界究竟正在 发生什么，它都远比表面看起来更加美好，也更加鼓舞人心。当我看着你们在一 起，我看见上帝的安排比我们所能想象的更深、更真、更自由、更辽阔，也更伟 大。
贝贝，Joseph 是我生生世世的兄弟，是来自更高之处、赐予我的一份珍贵礼物。 我看见，你让他安稳地扎根，也让他向上生长。对他而言，你如清水一般澄澈。 你是他的爱。你让他的心安定下来，而他稳稳地承托着你。我看见你的宁静、你 的轻盈和你的真诚，如何让他的内心变得更加坚定。看见你以这样的方式陪伴着 他，也让我深受感动和鼓舞。
我爱你，也爱你以只属于你的、完美而独特的方式爱着他。你是他的妻子，也是 我的家人。欢迎你，也谢谢你来到这里。
