A view on Marriage Pt.2

 


I was having a discussion about marriage with a friend. He told me he is afraid of getting married because of the things that has been happening in our society. 

According to him he does not understand why someone will get married and later get divorced after so many years. He also doesn't understand why someone will pretend in a relationship and when they get married they show their real traits. Hmmm.... disheartening right?

Many ladies today are dating rich men no matter the age just because of money. Some say is love but who are you to argue. Hmmm..

Many men today are now dating sugar mummies just because of money. Hmm...

Marriage is not a money transaction. I remember when I was in the university, I would  hear some of my classmates who were females say I want a rich man who will cater for me so that I can just sit down at home and do nothing. When I heard that I just looked at them and went back to what I was doing. After all the school fees, the job experiences, skills you've acquired and you sit on that at home?aaaahhhhbaahh....where is yourself worth?

Getting married to these rich men is never rosy. They just show what people want to see on social media but in real life that's not what is going on. 

Some of these rich men are always busy and they never get time to be with their wives.

Others are just so controlling and manipulative. You are just a trophy to them nothing else.

Some are women beaters, abusers, womanizers etc. There's no peace in the home and you have no say because you have sold your value to money.

Money is good but be mindful. Hmmm....

The fact that everyone is getting married doesn't mean you should too. Your time will come. 

Seek the face of the Lord and he will give you yours.

Marriage is not an easy journey so before you go into it, work on yourself, prepare yourself physically, mentally, spiritually and psychologically. 

Getting married to someone is not all about beauty or how much money the person has but how best you can love, support, tolerate and grow with each other for that long.

Bare in mind "Marriage is not a bed of roses, it takes time to adjust and live in it.



Always remember "before you get married ask yourself am I ready for this, if not please do not embark on the journey".

A PRAISE POEM

How handsome you are? Your steps are like ink dipped on paper Your muscles are well built like gigantic walls in Egypt Your lips are pinky wet like the strawberry Your fire burns rapidly in me that causes me to burn Your touch is warm and sweet like the cold weather An angel that no woman can do without An extraordinary bird that has beautiful features like the parrot Your love is pure and calm like the enchanted fairy tales And your arms filled with care like the warmly embrace of a mother

The Form One XpeRienCe part 3

 We got down and stood infront of them. I was told to go to bed since I just came today. The seniors told them to showcase their talents right infront of them. One of them sang a Jordan Sparks song titled 'No Air', another sang a gospel song and one senior said who could sing Brick and lace song 'Love is wicked'. At the time, that song was reigning and was the ish. They were just standing there, no one came forward. I was just lying on my bed and I was singing that song. I didn't know they were listening because I thought I wasn't that loud so when I stopped I realized the place was super quiet. The next thing I heard was 'form one girl get down' . I got up from my bed and stood infront of them then I was asked to sing the song I was singing. I did when I was done, I was asked to go back to bed and that was it. The next day was Saturday and I didn't know what to expect. I got to the bathroom to take my bath and I realized that the bathroom was an ope...

The form One XpeRienCe part 5

  Class was indeed interesting but I didn't like where I was sitting. My sitting partner was something else. The way she spoke to me I didn't like it at all. French was also boring for me at the time but I did enjoy it when I was in junior high. Wednesdays we had general assembly where all the teachers, the students and the headmistress would meet to discuss about certain things going on in the school. Saturdays was for entertainment and some times visiting. During my time, visiting happened twice in one month and it was nice. You get to eat proper home cooked meal or proper meal from a restaurant and that period was really cherished. That is the time you see different kinds of foods, drinks and snacks. It was really a time for sharing.  Sundays were church days and work days. The church is mostly held at the Asibey Hall in the morning and sometimes we would go to the presbyterian church in the town to join the community members there for service. This was done from class to c...
