A view on Marriage

 


I am not married yet but with the things I have been told by married people, from television, radio and the internet I know I can give my opinion about it.

Marriage is a union between two people. It is a divine institution created by God. "A man shall leave his mother and father and cling to his wife and they shall become one flesh".

Many times when two people meet they don't take their time to know themselves well for eg; background, business, take on finances and children, responsibilities etc. Some of this things are very vital and you should know. If they rush through it without the necessary information they sometimes end up quitting  the marriage.

When two lovely couples stand in front of the alter to say their 'I dos' what they sometimes mean is 'I'll try' but they forget that this is not an exam you are trying your hands on rather it is a long term commitment you are making to your significant other, someone you love. Mean the words you say because it is 'till death do you part'. If you are not ready please do not embark on this journey.

Other times people are too desperate to settle down because their biological clock is ticking or pressure from family and friends which most times end up tragically.

Marriage is a beautiful thing God created because His word said "He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favour from God". Anyone who gets married must be happy.

Marriage is about compromising, honesty and trust. You should learn to do these things effortlessly.

Some people also find it difficult to adapt in their new environment but they should learn to adapt because now you are one and there should be no privacy between you. Keep no secrets from each other. Secrets ruin marriage so be truthful at all times.

Treat your wife as a queen and your husband as a king. Let him feel like he is the boss. Be submissive to him. Submission does not make you weak but rather strong. It means you consider him the 'head of the home'. 

Husbands respect your wives, that doesn't make you weak either but rather it shows how much you love your wife like 'Christ loved the church'.

Do not allow a third party into your marital problems. It ruins everything rather discuss it together and offer solutions to it. If it becomes too difficult to solve the issue take it to God in prayer and he will give you wisdom, knowledge and understanding to deal with it.

Do not entertain family members/friends for too long in your home. It does not help. You are married and you need your privacy.

Making time for each other is a top priority. Time, attention and affection matter alot in marriage. It creates a bond between you two;  hence do not bring extra work home. Home is for the family, leave that in the office.

The form One XpeRienCe (Senior High) Part 2

  I was told the prep was going to be held at the dining hall since we haven't been given classes yet. I joined a batch of girls at the table and I opened a book to read. Some girls were just talking about what they did after they graduated from Junior high school and some were talking about trending things going on. I was just tired to even talk to anyone by the time I realized I was fast asleep. I don't know how fast the time went. After a while, I heard the siren and that immediately told me prep was over. I took my book and headed for the dormitory but first house prayers were made before we were allowed to enter into our dorms. I got in so exhausted. Immediately, I started packing my things because I didn't want to wait for tomorrow.  I didn't like where I was sleeping. My bed was right beside the door but hey there was nothing I could do since I came late.  Fortunately or unfortunately for me I ended up getting two school mothers; one was in form 3 and the other w...

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...

SeamTailor Saga

  I don't understand why seamstresses and tailors are always lying.  Did they go to school of lying and studied the course lying affairs and graduated with a first class degree? aahhbbaa!!! This is too much. Does this happen everywhere or just in Ghana? I really want to know. Let me tell you guys a story. There was this day I gave my cloth to this tailor to sew a dress for me. He told me that by next week it will be ready so that I can come for it. I told him I will be there next week. The following week I went there and he told me it wasn't ready that I should give him another week. I asked him if he was sure. He said yes and I left.  I came back the following week and he told me it wasn't ready. I got furious and I told him to give me my cloth because he wasn't being honest and truthful to me. Even as I am speaking to you a seamstress has my cloth that is yet to be done. Can you imagine? I hate this kind of treatment. Why can't they be truthful for once in their l...
