Marriage: An illusion.

It all begins from an acquaintanceship, developing into friendship, and later, they become best friends. As the friendship continues to blossom, one may fall for the other person and confesses his feelings for her. If she reciprocates, they shall move on and become a couple, the beginning of a boy-girl-relationship.

At this point of their relationship, things will seem to be sweet and nice. The love between the couple, the mutual affection that exists, gives joy and pleasure to the both of them. The care and concern for each other, the love that one gives for another can be the best experience for anyone in his or her life. They are happy with one another’s company as they spend time with each other, going on dates, watching a movie, doing things together and helping one another. Love is certainly a great element of life.

The relationship further develops on and they get engaged, signifying their bond as a couple. Now, they are much closer and intimate, and they would surely know one another fairly closely. It is just a matter of time before they tie the knot.

Marriage is a life-long commitment. Before a couple comes together, they have to really consider well enough to decide whether his or her partner is truly compatible. Once they get hitched, there is never a turning back. Marriage is only once in a lifetime. There is no second marriage.

However, nowadays, it is not uncommon to see a married couple divorce. Some get separated after a very short period of time after their marriage, whilst there are also broken marriages between couples who have spent decades together. Apparently, marriage is an illusion. It no longer holds two people together throughout their lives. People seem to take marriage as a trial-and-error. If it fails, they would just divorce, find a new partner and get married again. Three simple steps.

Well, people should not do that. This is because marriage is something that is beautiful, and it should be the acme of a person’s life. There should absolutely be one and only one marriage in one’s life. So, treasure your marriage. Select the most compatible life-long partner, and may marriage not be a mere illusion.

    So…Vee-liem thinks of marriage when he isn’t memorising formulae or indulging in puzzling math problems… Interesting.
    I couldn’t agree more. Marriage SHOULD be a sacred, once-in-a-lifetime thing.
    But then again, it’s a better option than suicide, physical abuse and a future of never ever finding true peace n happiness.. Right?
