Marriage

What is your opinion about marriage? Is it a holy or a normal issue in our lives? In other countries people have different ideas. Here in my country, there are so many people who don't get married even if they are getting old, because they are too busy to meet new friends. Usually, their parents arrange them to have blind dates. This is the traditional way to get married in China. In ancient times, girls rights were limited , they could only get married the man her parents like. Even though she has never seen him before. Is that marriage? I don't think this tradition could reach a happy ending. Marriage needs freedom, faith, trust, tolerance, responsibility, and most important: love.

I think marriage is when two people devote to each other to love, respect and share bad and good moments. But you are right, nowadays we are so busy with our jobs, school and personal issues that we don't take the time to meet people... we don't take the time to experience love. 

Here in Mexico, you can get marry anyone you choose, but sometimes we don't make good decisions, and we break up, we get divorced and sometimes children are the ones who suffer and feel the consequences of our bad decisions.
