Chapter 9 - Who to marry?

I found myself asking these questions…to myself lately. Moreso, this topic has come up countless times in my conversation with friends and these were my few thoughts that I came up with and made into a poem titled; Enjoy.

Who should I marry?


Marry your best friend. I do not say this lightly. Really, truly find the strongest, happiest friendship in the person you fall in love with. Someone who speaks highly of you. Someone who understands you, or at least willing to try. Someone you can laugh with. The kind of laugh that will make your belly ache, your nose snort and your eyes tear - Yes! that kinds of embarrassing, sincere, soothing laugh. It is important. Life is too short not to love someone who lets you be a fool with them and somebody who makes you cry too. Despair will come. Find someone that you want to be there with you through those times. Most importantly, marry the one who has passion, love and respect for God, because it’s on that solid rock that your marriage and your home will stand strong. I pray we all find that unconditional love that will last forever and that will never be diluted – even when the waters get deep, and dark. Cos trust me, it does sometimes. Lastly I say to you, you should not just marry someone you can live with, but rather, marry someone you cannot live without. Stay blessed.
