Holla readers and fellow prestigious hive bloggers, it is another edition of weekly featured content titled "Marriage" in hive learners community
Marriage is considered one of the greatest human relations and marital duty of every individual. A practice existing for centuries before the birth of civilisation. Different religions with their definitions of marriage inscribed in the holy book. Has civilisation grew among populace of earth which also influence the way people engage in marriage and it meaning.
I grew up knowing marriage as a union between husband and wife, family, entities and organisation. regardless of it nature and practice, it became clearer to me that less emphasis are placed on degree of affection between the couple's, the measure of compatibility of a couple among many other things has never been about love. though different individuals have different ways of ensuring both couples are compatible before marriage, through spiritual means and individual or family asset display, depending on the agenda of both families.
In this present generation, the practice and concept of marriage has become chaotic and unethical unlike how it was practiced honourably in the olding days. As days goes by case and issues of divorce sky rocket to the extent that I find myself thinking about the reasons behind this union in this first place. There are a lot of reasons behind the cause of divorce but most importantly I'm interested in the reason for marriage
Though a lot of people disagree with my perspective of marriage, which they consider to be delusional but I still continue to believe that marriage is a choice not a necessity. I strongly believe the reason behind the union between husband wife will eventually dictate how it will end.
Sadly in this present generation or century we have a lot of people getting married for the wrong reasons such as peer pressure, parental influence, monetary and properties ownership, kinship e.t.c. Without considering that marriage is a life long journey between a husband and wife, without significant or tangible reason for union between spouse, when other reasons such as money eventually fades away, eventually the desire to remain United fades away also.
In my hometown, there is a trending act called single mothers or baby mama. in the olding days this act was considered immoral and unethical among couples, I do not blame all women who end up finding themselves in a relationship with irresponsible man but for some they are very aware of the state of mind of their spouse before getting married to them, most especially in this era when men get involved in explicit act in order to get money and this is a major magnet that attract most men depriving them from thinking about the future a union with some who lies for a living
On the long run, they make themselves and their children victims of unhealthy union as a result of their greed for things that glitters.
Recently, I have grown to despise marriage due to its abusive nature and how it is practiced nowadays, I see a lot of young men and women and children who are victims of unhealthy marriages that could have been avoided, which got me thinking, Does it really worth it?
DOES IT REALLY WORTH IT?
Though I'm not married, when it comes to marriage I have a conflicting interest and opinion. the matters of it worth can only be determined by those who are actually married, experience speaks better. though from my opinionated perspective the worth of marriage depends on the purpose it serve in an Individual life. may be one day if I eventually get married, by then I guess I will figure out the purpose.
I think these days that is the best way to see marriage. It's merely a choice and not a necessity anymore. Most broken marriages were entered for the wrong reasons. Peer pressure is so heightened nowadays.
Yeah
People believe marriage will sort it self eventually after getting married without knowing that it is a life long journey.
I appreciate your insightful comment, thanks for stopping by 🤗🤗
For sure, it takes more and each partner has to give their best to make it work. The fact that it is a life long journey makes it look worthwhile to me.
You're most welcome!
If you say you want to experience it first before deciding whether or not it's worth it, then you might find a reason to divorce at the end. And might as well meet a partner who might not be ready to show it worth.
It think understanding the personal worth of marriage also has a big impact in determining the kind of spouse you choose. Because now you know exactly what you want and wouldn't settle for anything less

I believe marriage means different things for different people, knowing marriage worth means you have to first believe marriage is worth the stress which solely depends on who a person is marrying.
Thanks for your insightful contribution, it is highly appreciated 🤗
I believe it is a choice too. People should not be forced into it especially seeing how gruesome it is now.
Divorce rates now rule the world and several acts of immoralities are been accepted. Crazy World we live in.
Anyone who is up for the craziness should go for It.
It sounds like you are not a fan of marriage?
Haha, well I am and also not. It depends on the pairs seen. I counsel people. Married people.
This is interesting.
So you only counsel married people not unmarried, why is that😂
Haha. Nah... It is for everyone
Like they say instead of learning from your own mistake , there is a better way,learn from the mistake of others
Hmm, that is true.

Marriage if done right, can last the long haul 💗I don't think it should be forced.

Thanks for stopping by 🤗
You are welcome.
I concur with your thoughts that marriage is a choice and not a necessity.
Most people due to pressure and societal demands rush into marriage without looking out for certain factors especially that of love. All that matters to some, especially in Nigeria is if the man is capable and this shouldn't be. Marriage is way beyond material things. Both parties must first be willing to make it work.
I enjoyed reading your post, brother. Much love🥰
Yh that is true but as a result of rising spate in the rate of poverty which has forced a lot of individuals to getting into relationship for the sake of material benefit.
I appreciate your thoughtful comment, thanks for stopping by 🤗🤗
Hmm, knowing the reasons behind every union is really important, we must not get into marriage because of peer pressure or flimsy reasons.
That is true because at the end we have ourselves to blame.
