Each marriage has to be judged separately, and we never know what's going on in another person's marriage.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Every marriage is a mystery to me, even the one I'm in. So I'm no expert on it.
Marriage is this grand madness, and I think if people knew that, they would perhaps take it more seriously.
Marriage seems to be predicated on protecting a very deep and intimate form of mystery.
In the hands of the ego, marriage is a prison. It is exclusive. It is a place where people are constantly reminded of their failures and limited by the energies of another person. It is rife with judgment and blame.
Marriage is a reflection of your life in general: how you treat people, how you argue, how secure you are in your own thoughts. How vehemently do you argue your point of view? With what disdain do you view the other's point of view?
I think that with marriages, people have to understand that you have to look at your marriage and understand what is needed in your marriage - not what people think your marriage should be or what people want your marriage to be.
At some level, every relationship is assaulted by an aroma of judgment - this sense that we will never measure up to the expectations and demands of another.
I deeply believe that marriage is by nature between a man and a woman, but that conviction does not prevent me from recognising that other forms of affective relationships exist.
By our Heavenly Father and only because of God, only because of God. We're like other couples. We do not get along perfectly; we do not go without arguments and, as I call them, fights, and heartache and pain and hurting each other. But a marriage is three of us.
Marriage is like wine. It is not be properly judged until the second glass.
