Marriage is Not the Answer


 Three years ago I wrote about how marriage is not a dream worth chasing...yep, it's not! Stick with me here singles! So many ladies (and guys too) focus on it as their ultimate goal among goals and believe that in attaining it all their hopes and dreams will be realized.  And let's be honest, many really just want the ring, the dress (do guys dream of their tux?), the wedding day and don't think beyond the honeymoon. Few think about doing the work necessary in their dating relationships to ensure a forever marriage...yes there's work (future blog!).  So if marriage is your answer you got it twisted! You can read all about that crazy thinking here.

Today I came across this little nugget posted on FB which basically says the same thing, but it's written by a licensed professional counselor specializing in relationships...in case you need a pro to confirm what I keep saying! "Marriage Doesn't Solve Your Problems".

I hope those who expect their happiness and fulfillment to come via their wedding day/marriage will take some time to read the aforementioned links. I hope even more deeply that you discover what God has created you to be and do because in that lies the eternal happiness and peace we all long for.
