IS IT THE TIME TO GET MARRIED?

More and more you see bachelors and spinsters these days. Gone were the days when it is normal to see teenagers get married and have kids. Now it's more of the mid to late 20's and even more common are the 30's and above allowing themselves to be shackled.

MAJOR REASON is how people know that it is not easy to live by anymore. Its getting harder and harder to find jobs and be stable enough to care for oneself, what more of another and a whole family? Likewise, man are getting more wicked that it is not easy finding someone with true motives. Selfishness is reigning. Or that almost everybody have no trust on who to give his or her heart to anymore.

Singles tend to make the most of their "singlehood" first...almost not wanting to let go. The freedom, the independence, the life that they meant to enjoy and make last as long as can be.

When is the time to get married then?

• when you are ready to take responsibility.
• when you are matured enough.
  
• when you have experienced and enjoy what you hope to experience and enjoy as an individual.
• when you finally believe that living alone is not for you anymore.
• when your biological clock is running out and you want the natural way of conceiving.
• when you found that someone and there's nothing more you can ask for.
• and when you are done pleasing yourself and is committed to please another and a whole family of it.

SINGLE-HOOD…A CHOICE?

One of the most misunderstood notion in the present time is the pity we give to singles or spinsters, or in a lay man’s term Old Maid’s.

How can we pity someone who chooses that very life we pity them from living? Have we ever asked our self, does she prefers the chaotic life of being married or living in peace? Or maybe the responsibility of raising children or simply helping if can be in raising her nieces and nephews? Are they so unlucky to be having in the palm of her hands the time that parents or wives seek for even just for a day?

It is their own choosing not to give themselves to a man who they think will only use them, or to a man who they don’t feel they can love. Lucky are they who are the wiser when it comes to sticking to what they believe will be best for them. Fortunate are they to have recognized what they really want. They are women who uses their head where it is due and not their hearts that will eventually break if not careful. They follow how God placed the heads above the hearts and not the other way around.

And so, CHEERS to all spinsters for having the strength to live on their own and being happy about it!
