Marrying Late
Who would want to be alone? Of course, if not all, most of us want to grow old with someone. But marrying someone is not that simple as it looks like. You have to consider every aspect. Its not just because your heart beats every time you see that person, that person is already the one you would want to spend the rest of your life with. Making a decision to marry does not come in just one click. You have to think of it over and over again, for being united with someone in a holy wedlock is lifetime.
“Since they are no longer two but one, let no one split apart what God has joined together.” Marriage isnt about getting married today and be divorced the day after just because things go topsy-turvy.

The right person of course, wont force you to marry even when youre not ready yet. The right person doesnt only think about your today, but also your future, what would be like if the two of you are already married. Sad, but is the fact, that many youth today doesnt think about their future, most especially their childrens future, and they marry too early. I dont know if theyre just being blind, but we see how early marriages end. And still, their numbers are growing each year.
There are many disadvantages in marrying too early. Well, of course, if there arent, then our parents would not want to waste their time and saliva reminding us to concentrate on our studies first and not to focus on that thing. Im not saying that marrying late has no disadvantage, but what Im trying to express is that marrying late, is for me, a more appropriate thing to do, most especially today, in this generation.
The alarm of excessively early wedding is being broadcasted daily in global communications network. Early
