I Want to Get Married

The problem is people really think they love one another and really don't know the true meaning of love. Love is a lot deeper than words or an emotion, it requires a transformation of the heart to love a mate unconditionally to commit to for a lifetime....for many, they just tolerate each another due to vows that they believe are spiritual and laden with fear or for the childrens' sake. We've been conditioned to have expectations and conform to societal views about marriage, but one must truly love him- or herself before he/she can love another. We evolve over time and have a tendency to get married before we discover self-realization. With this being said, it prompts us to look for someone to fill the void or emptiness, instead of being content with being alone, to fill this hollowness within ourselves. At this point, then we are able to determine whether or not we are compatible with someone. Relationships shouldn't be based on power struggles, competition, or who's right or wrong; it should be based on how much we love one another to understand that there is more than one way to do anything.

You'd better get moving, then. If you wait too much longer, you'll be a senior citizen with kids in school!
