What is marriage?
couldn't resist the temptation of the vcd lying on top of the player, so decided that I shall just watch it. What was I watching? "Shall we dance?" Well it's a typical type of Jo-watching film, drama and romance.
Really like Richard Gere. Find him very charming for a man of his age. Well, just find him kinda charistimatic with the way he speak, smile and dance. Hei hei... Yesh... Dance...
The way him and J. Lo danced was like some kind of fairy tale ballroom dance. Well.. I guess I'll never dance so gracefully. Bluah.... heehee...
Ok that's not the point about this entry. Wanted to share something which knocked some sense in me from the movie. When Susan Sarandon suspected her husband Richard Gere of having an affair, she hired a PI to follow her husband and one question she popped to the PI was "Why do pple get married?"
The PI answered "For passion." Susan's answer was "Marriage is to witness someone's life. There are a few billion people on earth and you cant possibly witness everyone's life and you cant witness your own life. Your spouse will be like a mirror reflecting who you are for you to witness his or her life and yours too."
Felt that makes lots of sense. Why over the years divorce rates keep scaling? That's cos too many people are getting married for the sake of getting married, for the sake of instant passion, for responsibility, for incentives, for the sake of others and age pushing them to be married. Nonsense. Rubbish.. Such marriage wont last long. Well not all such marriages wont last, but over 90% of marriages based on the above reasons dun last. Statistics have shown that more and more couples are seeking divorce within 5 years of marriage. What's wrong with this society? It's sick. God please help this world.
I remembered that I once heard from the radio 3 years back and I still do remember abt it cos it's kinda interesting that the passion, chemistry and intense feeling of love would normally last for at most 18 months between a couple if the relationship isn't maintained by both party. Hey dear all out there, know what I think if ur present relationship is less than 18 months long, it's nothing. It's only after the 18th month then will the tough gets going. So the most important part of a relationship is the time after 18th months cos that's when a relationship get really stable.
Dun marry someone whom u got an instant crush on, cos when you marry someone whom u hardly know abt, u may not be able to find urself in that spouse. I believe the spouse in ur life is a decision which u make by choice and this choice will reflect the kind of person who u wanna be or even who are you in life. Just like the bible which allows us to reflect on ourselves daily, a good spouse will be able to do so too.
I never support or agree to pre-martial sex, cos I just dun feel right abt it. Virginity is something which God gave to everyone to be presented to the someone special of their life on their union day. It's holy and sacred. Yet so many people abuse this gift. When pre-martial sex isn't in place, the reason of marriage due to responsibility will not exist then.
The whole worry is so big and yet to be able to find the person of ur life will be a great blessing. And that person of your life will just have to be the perfect witness of ur life and u for him.
Read an email about the missing rib and I believe that many of u would have read it too. Well I really do believe that God created man and woman in a perfect pair whereby the woman is created from the rib of the man. The rib will only fit into the perfect cage and not any other Tom, Dick or Harry's rib cage. Give some thought to that.
