I just can not get used to the attitude so many people have towards marriage these days. While out at the spa with friends this week, a woman says "it would be so much easier if anytime in the first five years of a marriage you could just OPT out if you wanted to -- without having to deal with the legal side of divorce. Just say goodbye and on your way you go! That would be Awesome"Who's says this stuff - let alone thinks it would be a great thing to add into the marriage vows?
It's so sad, that marriage is just not important anymore. That it is not respected - nor cherished.
I love my husband, I can not say this enough or TOO LOUDLY lol. He's my best friend in the whole world. Everything that is "me" is lacking without him there to be a part of it.
I take my marriage very seriously. I wish other people would too. It is crazy that "we" are not the norm in society. I'm not saying that every marriage should work out, or that someone should stay in a violent situation.
What I am saying is this..... That for all you perspective brides and grooms, please please please realize that when you enter a marriage the only power you have is over yourself! You will never change each other! You can only strive to be the best person you can be and hope that through whatever changes you make in your lifestyle, mind. beliefs, heart, actions, reactions, you name it ------ that your other half will be inspired by your show of change and growth to in turn change themselves for the better.
The last thing that I will say is - "communication" is the utmost important survival key in a marriage. USE IT! And if your not a great communicator - then learn or you'll wake up one morning wondering why you are alone.
