Marriage: they say it is an agreement between two mature persons who are willing to accept each others in good faith no matter what the future holds. Whether in richness or poverty; they are bound to stay together. But the question is, why marriage of nowadays don't last for years? Can we say the problem lies between the husbands being too aggressive or the wives not ready to be submissive with their feminist ideology. Even the holy bible, Quran and the traditional African holy book support the women being submissive as well as the husbands showing their wives abundant love.
Marriage ought to be an everlasting union as long as the two that have become one are still alive. Like this saying in my locality; 'till death do us part' that only should sound as motivation for the couples in question, but reverse is the case. Only few are wiling to make the sacrifice to engineer the marriage, rather they are there mainly to take from the pool of love.
I'm not really advocating for perfect marriage but ability for the two to reason together when there is dispute. We do know that even the mouth and tongue fight at time more or less two persons that come together from family apart.
What stipulate me in writing this is the fact that I was privilege to attend a wedding ceremony of a brother. Seeing happiness in the face of the couples made me excited, I just pray that their marriage last forever. Nothing should come between them and even if it does come. The ability and strength for them keep moving, God should grand them.
