Marriage- God's Institution

What on earth do we take marriage for? This note was inspired by the divorce between Tiger Woods and his wife (ex).

Do people really know the reality of marriage? Do they actually know what they are getting into? Do they actually know what was on the mind of the person that coined d phrase '4 beta 4 worse'? I don’t think so.
Most ladies have the idea that marriage is a bed of roses. They are so eager to get into it. Little do they know that their eagerness is to get into trouble!
When you marry a man, its like you are buying a bag of mixed seafood. Even though it’s called seafood, not all of it is edible. When you get into marriage, you start unpacking the bag to see the content.

All through your courtship days, you were bargaining for and purchasing the bag. You can never find it 100% edible, never! Women are so swift to point out the man's bullshit to the whole world after the man has taken a lot of theirs.
Who knows how many times Tiger Wood's ex-wife had messed up and we heard nothing of it. Now because he has messed up, (well he did) d whole world must know. Didn’t she actually say for beta for worse at the altar?

Yes, he did wrong but that’s not enough reason for her to end his life (his career). She made a very selfish decision. If she actually truly loved this man, it should be all inclusive (his good, bad, mess ups, big ups, rise, fall, successes, failures). She only married the positive, while the negative can either be for him alone or for another woman.
Do you think the men in lasting marriages are perfect? No! They are not but their wives are living with the bag of mixed seafood. Before you get married, pause, think, what am I getting into?
 When you marry a man, you marry his snoring, dirty socks, bad breath, body odour, disorderliness and so on. Are you mature enough to handle it? Are you ready? Can you endure when necessary?

These are some of the numerous questions we should ask ourselves.
When entering into marriage, don’t ever enter with the mind that there's a way out of d marriage if you are not happy wit it. There's no way out! Trust me, divorce isn’t a way out either. So you better look carefully, yorubas will say 'wo ofinifini'. But asides all this, marriage is a very beautiful institution, all you need to do is get things right.
