Marriage is a very important institution, one of the most important institution in world and as such, it should be taken seriously and guarded jealousy
Marriage, like any other institution has it's unique goals which makes it what it is. A goal or goals are what makes institutions to have focus; they're the drive and back bone that keeps the institution going
In the case of Marriage, however, the society seems to be gradually losing the goal and it's a very huge problem to marriage institution.
The focus is gradually shifting to other unimportant things and that's why most people no longer enjoy marriage; some marriages don't last long anymore
The divorce courts are ladened with thousands, if not millions of divorce files because people rush into marriage these days without really knowing what the institution is all about, and consequently, they end up rushing out of it the same way they rushed in.
People spend time planning for wedding, spending huge amounts of money for wedding receptions but they fail to plan and prepare for the real thing which is marriage
Think about this:
People spend 4 to 5 years or more in school studying a course that they don't even get to practice eventually, some people spend years learning a line of trade or business that they'll do for some years
But when it comes to Marriage, people suddenly think they can do it without studying about it, people assume they know marriage when they know nothing about it, this is very bad indeed
Marriage is also worth studying; it'seven worth studying more because it's a lifetime commitment unlike other things we study that we only practice for some time and leave
Now I ask you, are you really prepared or preparing for Marriage?
How many couples have you studied or asked questions about Marriage?
How many marriage books have you read?
People have to understand that marriage is a very serious and lifetime commitment and not just some days or years. It is forever
The time to start planning and preparing for marriage is not when you want to wed, the time is now!
Start planning now so you don't end up going into marriage and seeing everything like surprise.
We're going to be discussing some things we need to do in preparation for marriage; stay put and anticipate in my subsequent posts
For now, it's bye
