DONT DENY YOURSELF THE JOY OF BEING SINGLE BECAUSE OF YOUR DESIRE FOR MARRIAGE


Marriage is a beautiful thing and I will say that anytime and any day. One of the best thing that can happen to a being is to be married to a partner who makes life worth living. Those partners make the home your theatre and your Paradise. They give you a reason to look forward to coming home after a very hard day's job. Have you ever noticed some men don't look forward to going home after a hard day's work? They would rather hang out with the boys all in a bid to soak themselves with alcohol so that when they get home, they will just take a shower and go to bed. Its called escapism. They don't find life in their marriage anymore. Marriage to some of these men appears mechanical, unattractive, unfashionable ,uninteresting , unlovely , and they would rather sleep at the beer parlour than go home. This is only an exception,marriage is a beautiful thing.
A young man did ask, how come those inside a marriage want to come out while those outside want to go in? Call it the irony of life. A successful marriage anytime ,any day is the result of hard work, compromise, understanding, deep affection, forgiveness, lots of prayers and above all, Gods grace. In a marriage, what you put into it is what you get. If you want an Angel, make your home a heaven because Angels don't live in hell. However heavenly or hellish some marriages may be, many deny themselves the joy of single life just because they feel they ought to have gotten married. They compare themselves with friends their age who are already married. They wake up on a very beautiful day and choose to make themselves sad because they are still single. They even make others their enemies because of it. They act in this way so much so that you ask yourself, is it a curse to be single?
I will share with you why you should learn to appreciate your single life rather than deny yourself a life that you may never have again once married .
1. A single being is a single being
When you are single, you are not under any oath. It means you are single. You are not answerable to a partner because of the oath of marriage. Its not two have become one, you are single. Can you feel it?
2. A single being can go and come as he or she pleases
The freedom to go and come as you please rest with being a single. You cannot do that in a marriage without carrying your partner along. Marriage is about two people not one.
3. A single being can move around the world as he pleases
Sometimes when you get a job in another state or country, you will consider a whole lot before taking it if you are married. If you are single however, this may not be the
