When people say love is blind. I say to them that it is marriage that will restore the sight. Before marriage, opposite sex attracts but in marriage, they repel. Do not go into marriage blindly, those who have so gone are regretting. Do not be forced into it either because if you do, you will equally be forced out. Go into marriage with your two eyes wide open. This is because whatever you do blindly will have problems. Some are already into it for no one told them love is a dream.
When you dream for instance, sometimes you may see yourself as the head of state, chairman of a big multi- national organisation, in a push car etc before someone knocks on your door and you come back to reality to discover you have been dreaming.
However you can turn your love dream into reality if you will note and do the following:
Do not rush into love: Love is like a tender plant, it takes time to grow. Somebody may just like you but say he/ she loves. Likeness and love are not the same. Someone can like you if he sees what he wants in you. If there are benefits he thinks he can derive from you but as soon as those things are no more that is the end. But love means despite who and what you are or may turn out to be in future. He will always be there for you.
When you wake up , face life. You do not win a battle by running away from it , those who have woken up to the reality that what they dreamt of was not what they found; I say, take heart because you can still turn that marriage around, only that it will be at a price. The price of patience, endurance forbearance, forgiveness and hope. Do not give up on your marriage no matter what
Great post my friend! There is a reason that I will be coming up on 14yrs of marriage at the end of the month. We've been together for 2oyrs. Marriage is a never ending work. Each day you learn from each other,and encourage each other.
