Marriage and family may not be easy, but what is it for? It is for producing, understanding and experiencing real and lasting love. No where else will a human being be deepened by the experience of love in the way they will through having and maintaining a family whose members are dedicated to loving one another. If you want to miss out on deep, lasting and meaningful love, skip having a family. You may find yourself thinking you are happy without realizing love. Without love what are you but only a self centered, empty shadow of who you were meant to be?
“Without love what are you but only a self centered, empty shadow of who you were meant to be?”
Maybe you didn’t mean it that way, but I’m not married but I don’t consider myself “self-centered” or “empty”.
Whoa. That is just wrong. Not all single or divorced persons are loveless self-centered, empty shadows.
