I just don't get it!

What is the deal with people getting divorced these days??? I know divorce is nothing new but because of Neela I think about it more and more. I am terrified at what this world is going to be like when Neela is at the age to get married. I understand there are times where there is adultery and abuse where it has to happen and I completely agree with that. But to get divorced for ignorant, petty reasons? Really??

While driving to work on Monday, I heard on the radio that Kim Kardashian and her man are getting a divorce after only 72 days. No, there was no cheating or abuse involved. Why are they getting divorced? Well, for many petty reasons  such as they can't agree where to live. Are you freaking kidding me????

I just don't get it! Marriage is not a game!! Getting married is not so you can play house!! People today get married with the thought it their mind that if it isn't exactly what they want it to be, they can always just get divorced. And how do I know this? Because I have heard it with my own two ears!

In my opinion, this is happening for two reasons. The first and most predominate reason is that people are not surrounding their marriage around God and his will for their life. If you don't have a stable relationship with God, you have no business trying to have one with another human being. The second reason is that the majority of people in today's society have never outgrown their "toddler phase." Everything is still "mine" and "what about me" and "i don't like it so i'm not gonna do it" instead of "what can I do for you" and "how can we work together to solve this problem?"

I am so glad that God has blessed me with Nick. He is not perfect but perfect for me. The following quotes from pinterest describe how I feel about him the best:



 



Now that I have posted sappy ones, I do feel the need to post a few humorous ones. One of the great things I love most about Nick is that he finds humor in the same things I do!








Now that I have posted my quotes, I hope that you will join me in helping to make our kids today understand what marriage is supposed to be. Join with me in the "Marriage Revolution!"

Your short friend on a soapbox,
