Four Thoughts I Have About Marriage
With the recent issues on broken marriages, people have begun to share their thoughts about getting married. Some believe it is a waste of time, as people are too vulnerable lately. But some still feel the magic of marriage. Since I am also reading and hearing things about it, I tried to itemize my thoughts about it.
There are many controversies related to couples, like Johnny Depp and Amber Heard from international and Jason and Moira here in our country. They are the talk of the town recently, which led to various arguments about marriage, and if it is still worth it.
If you are curious about my stand and ideas, check them below. We may have differences and similarities, but know that I respect everyone’s point of view about this matter. The things I will mention below are only from my perspective and thoughts expressed through writing.
Marriage is sacred.
You read it right. I know that some of you will agree with this, but I see marriage as sacred. They promised and exchanged vows to each other. Some may disagree and say that marriage is only on papers and legal aspects. But for me, it is sacred not only to those who get married at churches. The vows and promises of staying together in health and sickness, the richest and the poorest, etc.
Marriage is a commitment.
Marriage starts when you have already uttered the vows and exchanged rings. But the essence of being committed begins when you live your life together. It is not about the good days anymore but also choosing each other amidst challenges in your relationship. I think that marriage is a commitment you have to protect and treasure.
Marriage is a significant decision in life.
Since marriage is about being committed to someone for the rest of your life, it is an important decision you will make because it will affect everything. Sometimes, I think of not getting married since it is about being with someone repeatedly. I still can’t imagine myself being dependent on a man for the following years of my existence in this world.
Marriage is about two people becoming one.
Two people were becoming one is the definition of my Mama about marriage. She always tells us that it is not about your life anymore but the home you will build for the team that the two of you will make after marriage. She also added that getting married is not something you can throw away when you feel like you don’t want it anymore.
For my Filipino readers out there, we believed in the saying “Ang pag-aasawa ay hindi parang mainit na kanin, na mailuluwa mo kapag napaso ka.” And my Mama taught us about this too.
Maybe you are curious about my article for today, but I am not yet planning to get married. I still have so much on my plate right now. Also, I don’t think I will get married someday since I haven’t found the love that’ll make me want to be with them for the rest of my life. Yes, I have a boyfriend, and we are so open about my thoughts about it.
What was his response whenever I tell him that I was not yet sure about getting married to him? He said, he will wait until I feel that love, comfort, and desire to be with him for the rest of my life. And I guess that’s a plus point for him since he accepts my stand about marriage. It is a vital decision in someone’s life, indeed.
