  Marriage.....Why must I be labeled bitter?

  Pre K: I don't think god has anything to do with marriage.. marriage is an institution built on the foundation of politics and economics but sold to public as one of holy significance and the cosmic word, love.

  So i was checkin my subscriptions and came across this from tha homie Pre K (you guys should check out his blog...it's truth) anywayz this is exactly what i've been thinking for soooo long....a lot of recent events (my friends gettin married and meeting  people around my age that married) have led to this revelation...THE WORD MARRIAGE IS FAKE AND SALES NOTHING BUT FANTASIES!!! 

  When we're children we are told FAIRYTALES (aka some bored person's fantasies) of lost maidens being swept off their feet by their prince charming and living happily ever after riding into the sunset (end scene)...but the stories don't include the truths and work you have to put in....So we grow up with these fantasies engrained in our brains and have us thinkin this how love will be...Even when we grow up movies are made based of these fantasies (more brainwashing of weak relationships built on physical attractions or some fading characteristic)...then we find ourselves heartbroken when we don't end up living these fantasies in our everday lives and wonder why we're the only one's goin through this cuz love isn't suppose to be this way....WAKE UP!

  So i've voiced this opinion to many people and for tha most part i've gotten good vibes back...people saying "i agree" or "yeah that's true" but there are a few people who get all upset and tell me that i'm just "another bitter black woman who got hurt and now has given up on love" This could be no further from tha truth...i have in no shape, form, or fashion given up on love!  It's just that tha whole thought of marriage being this 'sacred institution that one only enters when he/she is fully prepared to share a faithful love'  is simply for tha birds!!! 

  Now don't get me wrong, I am not sayin that all marriages are headed for destruction..i'm merely sayin that marriage has morphed from being somethin internal and personal between two people to an external word that is suppose to symbolize love.  When the truth is love and marriage can certainly exist independantly without the other.....therefore they can not possibly define each other!  In other words...don't think that a relationship can not be one of love because there is no marriage...because there can certainly be a marriage with no love! 

  People then say..well the bible says that marriage is sacred and relationships should be defined by it....however I believe that the marriages of today are NOT what GOD meant when he created the sacred union of marriage.  We all know that things have changed an awful lot since biblical times, so until we understand what GOD really meant when he talked about marriages it is not fair to place HIM in the center of somethin that has no ties or pertains to HIM at all!

  Like Sean Combs (Puff  Daddy, Diddy or whateva he's being called these days) said when he was asked about why he never married Kim: "Kim never voiced that she wanted to be married.  If she said she wants to get married today I'll marry her, but we never thought that would work for us.  Marriage doesn't define what we have.            I know a lot of married people and tha sh!t ain't that happy."

  In other words IF IT AINT BROKE STOP TRYIN TO FIX IT!
