Many
people fail to take time to learn their spouses in wee moments of their
matrimonial union or before. You find that there are some people who build a
buffer between them and their spouses to a stage where one fails to tell whom
really his/her better half.
You
will realize with ups and downs of life it reaches a time when such questions
like; where did I really get this ‘thing’ ,why did I marry this ‘dog’, what did
I really drink when I resorted to this ‘brat’ and such like questions.
These
questions usually emerge after some period in marriage life. It is obvious many
young people who get in to marriage fail to understand what really marriage
life is. In fact marriage is not roses and honey but it also contains bitter
herbs. There are some individuals who got in to marriages as a result of
influence, may be wealth, colour of the skin, complexion, fame and non filial
factors.
I
have witnessed cases where a very gigantic marriage lasts for a month. Save for
the giant cost of the marriage celebration, just because something has not met
the expectation of the other party.
I
want advise those who are intending to make a life-long relationship to do more
than just research and tests to quantify and qualify everything in a
relationship. Another thing they must know is that marriage was constituted by
God and no man can modify it to fit accordingly.
Remember
a poor man may stay a very happy and lovely marriage while a dumb rich persons
marriage breaks down.
