Hello friends,
I have observed with keen
interest, the rate of divorce, break-ups, distrust and lack of commitments to
relationships these days that I begin to ask myself if the world is coming to
an end. Is it that our forefathers who started this and had theirs work were
simply extra ordinary or was there some degree of respect for that term “relationship” which we tend not to
honour. Perhaps we may have forgotten the origin of this unionism dated back in
the biblical book of Genesis (2:22-24). I
strongly believe there was need for a company for the first man Adam and that’s
why Eve came to play. Save that a rib was taken from him, one could say she was
destined to be with him considering the nature of her existence. Yes, they were
the first set of couples, they couldn’t have dated, destiny joined them but it
doesn’t mean they were perfectly compatible, yet they stood by each other.
Imagine what Adam’s reaction
would have been if he were in this generation; to see that Eve’s disobedience (on
the fruit in the middle of the garden) landed them into a lifetime trouble,
that probably would have been the end of the marriage. Some will argue that
Adam had little or no option other than to continue with her. The much we know
about the mode of communication/association between God and man then was mainly
physical and I’m sure God would have granted him that request if he never
wanted that Eve (maybe another Eve would have come). Others will say we are in
a generation where anything is possible and people are beginning to get wiser
than they should. In my opinion, I think this is even the time when we should
express/respect that which was, has been and will always be.
The hidden truth remains;
intolerance is the key factor that leads to most break-ups. Suffice it to say
that lack of love has been the major cause but before you begin to love
someone, you would tolerate and allow him/her to fit into you own lifestyle.
Thanks.
