Recently, somebody argued with me that it is okay to leave a man that could not provide wealth, does not have a good education background and the capability to earn a lot of money. She was arguing with me unrealizing that I was actually looking at relationship on another perpective and not opposing her thought.
When a girl chooses her man based on his wealth, education, and capability to earn, she is making a choice. This is not from love, but I wouldn't deny that there are successful marriages born from this choice. Marrying the man whom a girl or a woman has loved, doesn't guarantee a successful marriage too.
Marriage is a risk. If you are looking at a bussiness perspective, it is like an investment in shares. If in construction, it is like building a mega structure. Anytime, a small mistake could bring a big disaster.
We take risk marrying a stranger, though he or she is not totally stranger, but he/she is at a certain extend. We take risk making baby/ies. Children change our budget flow. We take risk in buying property for family. We take risk in buying insurance, choosing school and education for children, and so on.
Many of us could agree that marriage is a risk. But when we could say marriage is love and if we realize and could see that love is love, and no other things or whatever could replace 'love', and because love stands by itself without any other word that matches it. What is the better way to describe a marriage?
Marriage is from love. We choose a better man or woman as our partner. But is it out of love? If we love the person we choose, then there is no wrong in choosing. But if couldn't love the person we choose, then make sacrifices to sustain the marriage.
