Ah, the sanctity of marriage. It’s hard to find these days with
divorce rates high, the exploitation of marriage on television
shows such has Married by America and Who Wants to Marry a
Multimillionaire, and the it-was-over-before-it-started marriage of
Britney Spears.
Unfortunately, marriage has adapted to our fast-paced,
ever-changing lifestyles where we don’t want to work for results,
we want them immediately — without time or effort. If we don’t get
those results we are all too quick to cut our losses and move
on.
Statistically, you are more likely to find your mate in college
than any other time in your life. Before marriage, pre-marriage
counseling is an option that we encourage and before inking divorce
papers, family and marriage counseling. Of course, in cases of
domestic abuse or other situations where one’s safety is at risk,
quick separations are needed.
Marriage should always be respected and should not be
disregarded with ease. It is unfortunate that marriage has become
trivial in our society, but sanctity is possible, though it does
require work and effort.
