You will stay happier if you're unmarried

source

The society has shaped our minds to think and believe that marriage comes with happiness when infact you will stay happier if you're unmarried.

This false idea of happiness as one of the benefits of marriage has been passed from generation to generation. it's just a product of our ancient cultures and traditions which were structured and created by men of old based on what pleased them. Our traditions and customs exalted marriage in such an undeserving manner and this has cajoled a lot of people into the union of marriage. A lot of people now live in pains,unhappiness and regret. Some very brave ones pullout while some endure the pains because of the fear of what the society would say.

With the very alarming rate of divorce today, it is evident that marriage doesn't promise happiness. People now prefer to be single because they want to be happy. Take a lead from people like JEFF BEZOS, BILL GATES, TIGER-WOODS, DWAYNE JOHNSON and DANY GARCIA JOHNSON, etc. The numbers are endless. These are just a courage few, bold enough to chase their happiness not minding what people would say.

Reasons why you would stay happier if you're unmarried.

• You will be free to do things without seeking the consent of a spouse: yes!, you're free if you're unmarried, free to do whatever you choose, go wherever you choos without informing anyone or seeking their consent. Such freedom brings happiness.

• You will do things at your own pace without anyone slowing you down or rushing you and therefore you'll be comfortable and happy

• You will not suffer heartbreaks : There will be no one to break your heart and put you in depression, you will live happily..

• You will achieve more for yourself : since you're not married , you can pursue your dreams effectively without anyone dragging you back, achieving your dreams will bring you fulfillment and happiness.

• For women, there will be no man trying to control your life. It's such a happy feeling.

• You're free to hangout with as many friends as you wish whether they're male or female without worrying about what your spouse would think. You tend to enjoy yourself more and live happy.

With these points stated above, I hope you're convinced that indeed you will live happier if you're unmarried, you can even adopt kids if you wish. unmarried life is a life of freedom and peace of mind.

punishment never has a good effect

Another motion I would like to support is the motion that says "punishment never has a good effect".
Indeed, punishment never has a good effect. Often times we say punishment is just a way of correction but infact it is not. punishment just inflicts pains on the individual. We do not do the right things because we fear that we will be punished, no we don't, we do it because we know it's the right thing, because we are aware of the negative and catastrophic effects that may result from doing evil.
If someone one does wrong, the right thing to do is to make the person become aware of what they have done and the disastrous effects that would arise from what they have done.
Punishment doesn't change the bad a person has done. it doesn't even change the person, rather it takes away the torment and guilt from the persons heart because the person now feels he has paid for what he did.
Punishment creates and promotes a system that encourages misdeeds. It creates the feeling that evil and misdeeds are normal and indispensable else there won't be a need for punishment.

Punishment indeed never has a good effect, it only promotes more evil.

votes are not guaranteed

Lastly I want to support another motion which says "votes are not guaranteed".
This is truly one of the most renowned statement here in steemit. It serves is a reminder to every content Creator here in the platform.

To support that statement, firstly, I would want to remind us that steemit is a social media with a variety of Communities that can accommodate our different interests. It's is a platform where we can share information and ideas and also get informations and ideas too. It gives us the platform and opportunity to engage and do what we love to do. This is what steemit is an should be approached as such. The votes and rewards we get aren't our rights, they're out of the benevolence of the steemit team, just to appreciate what we do and show that they see and care about us. so votes are not and shouldn't be guaranteed.

Secondly, there are a lot of very good contents in the platform which are worthy of votes but these votes cannot get to everyone at the same time and the amount of vote dispensable each day is also limited by the Mana, we all know how Mana depletes with votes. so we should understand that we may be lucky or not. Therefore votes cannot be guaranteed.

These are my opinions.

Thank you so much for viewing my post. Hope you found it interesting.
