MARRIAGE

Marriage as we all know is a sacred vocation. It is supposed to be a life time commitment to someone you choose to be w/ for the rest of your life.As we usually hear the couple promise each other in a wedding ceremony ".... through sickness and health till death do us part..". Thus says the promise, and it'll remain as is until it's EXECUTED after the ceremony.Unfortunately, promises are usually quiet hard to fulfill.Luckily or unluckily in marriage, you are not simply affirming a promise, but declaring a vow in the presence of families, relatives, friends of both parties, a priest or a minister and above all " THE ALMIGHTY FATHER", thus making it blessed.
Being a holy pledge it is hard for us not to take it seriously.As the overused cliche
says " Marriage is not a joke. It is not like food that you can spit out when it is too hot to chew." This what I call realization of what really marriage is. Our folks frequently tells us about this tale, yet instead of feeling alert you feel intimidated and most of the time upset( most especially if you thought you're in- love).
Most probably it's assumed that LOVE, is an important factor in marriage.But then, love could either make or break you.Don't get me wrong, what I want to point at is, when one is " heel over head " in- love w/ somebody the person becomes bullheaded.Making that person certain of what he feels at the moment.After the excitement of being married in the presence of everybody and the honeymoon period of the couple, comes the authenticity of it all.
Marriage is a full time job.Most importantly the relationship must be based from mutual respect,fidelity,dedication, selflessness,and give and take partnership.It's not an easy job but at least you can try.Just try hard enough so you won't regret,but then, because it's a difficult journey to go through, be prepared of the consequences that comes w/ it.Though in the lighter note, the idea of having someone to share w/ (perhaps if you get lucky) the rest of your life is inspiring.Just be careful in choosing whom to entrust yourself for it's quite a bad experience to fall w/ the wrong person ( I should know for I experienced it myself ).
