Wrong Motive V, Contributed By @Olawalium
…continued… from part 1, part 2, part 3 and part 4
Marriage is good and I am living it, but you need to know why you are getting into it in the first place. You need to envisage and think about the future. Close your eyes and imagine that long future ahead of you in marriage with the person you want to spend it with and be sure you really want to go through with it. You won’t always look like that and there would be some down moments too in the marriage, just as your spouse would age gracefully too.
You need to build as much closeness as possible because when you are seeing a totally different person from who you know, then your closeness; the friendship you have come to share would kick into effect. This is why I would always support the claim that you must get to know that person first before you jump into the ship with him or her.
It is true, you can never know all there is to know about the person in the place of courtship, but you should try and be open and not blinded by love to see if you are able to overlook those excesses and still love the person in spite of them.
An ambitious person is always attractive and sexy and this is why you need to develop yourself and bring someone to the table. A lot of people feel contented staying and doing nothing while they still complain that they are not being loved and appreciated. As humans, we always want to go to where we see the value, so as someone who is planning on getting married, you should start seeking for ways to add value in your relationship because being redundant will always pose a threat to your love and marriage. Marriage is much more than the limited understanding we have of it.
It is not about doing what is convenient for you or what is easy but about making things work’ more so doing things that you are not used to just because you understand the life of sacrifice that marriage has placed on you. In fact, you have to still do it with joy and gladness.
…THE END…
Thank you for your time.
My pen doesn’t bleed, it speaks, with speed and ease.
Still me,
My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.

I went to visit a couple, more like a family friend after about 15yrs and i met just the Man and his wife alone. All children gone from the house, and i simply said to them happy married life. "This is marriage"
When the face wrinkles
the beauty seem to have vanished
the big bumbum now flaccid
breast fallen. When the handsome dude now looks otherwise, no more fitted longsleeves and all the fancy stufds gone and you still stick together even more happier; Welcome to marriage.
its been an insightful post sir.and thanks for sharing and i pray that your marriage continue to be an inspiration on a daiky basis to the teeming youths out there.
more of God's grace to go on. More joy n on a regular.
God bless you sir.
Wow! Wonderful illustration. Yes, that is marriage because marriage is about reality. This is why we should never substitute the affection of our spouse for our children because when the children leaves, you will both be back to how you started and if you have cracks over the years and no closeness, then it would be tough. This is why many couples divorce after their children left them to face their own lives. They just weren't close anymore.
Thanks a lot for this. I enjoyed your contribution.
