Oh Dear! Yep I have some thoughts!I had observed many marriages from the outside before I got married myself. Some families with kids convinced me that I never want to either get married, or have kids. Some families were just the opposite! And it directly had to do with how healed up they were, and how much of their own junk they had dealt with.Marriage is a great thing and God knew what He was doing with this wonderful idea. I love being married. I still sleep in sometimes, curl up with a book or go to a movie with the girls and it’s all good. The trick is who you marry! When you meet the right guy Sarah you will want to marry him and then you will know what I mean!Of course when you meet him he needs to go through me first!!! 🙂 and probably a host of other people who love you, but when he makes it through then you know “hey, God had the right idea!”
It’s funny – as I wrote this particular post, I told a friend of mine, “I bet I’ll get a response back from my mentor, AJ.” Thanks, as always, for the advice…it’s what God started to speak to me the night after I posted. God: “Wasn’t it my idea in the first place?”Sarah: “Good point.”
Well, I can’t comment yet regarding spawnage, but as for marriage, two things: 1) There is nothing stopping you from doing things on your own when you’re married. Sure, if it’s going to cost some serious money, it’s advisable to check with your partner, but you hardly have to remain joined at the hip 24/7. Joined at the groin, perhaps…which leads us nicely into 2) Sex makes up for all manners of marital evils. Even fighting takes on new and wonderful meaning when said disagreement leads to conflict resolution which leads to orgasmic bliss. Honestly, who cares if they leave the toilet seat up when they can do THAT with their tongue? And on that note, must go find husband.
