Enduring Love

There are many transitions in marriage that couples should really think about and discuss before getting married. Before marrying the person you think you want to marry, you need ask questions about the future and put yourselves in situations where you can really see how the other person would react. You don't want to end up marrying someone who ends up only wanting one child as opposed to wanting four like you do. You need to make sure that you know what they expect out of you in marriage as well as when your raising your family. Does the future husband expect his wife to work and put the children in day care? or does he expect his wife to stay home? Do you expect your future husband to work every day and do everything he can to provide for you, even if that means working two jobs? These are the kinds of questions you should really explore and bring up before marriage and maybe even before engagement.

There are many challenges that a couple is likely to encounter during their first month of marriage. A challenge that comes to mind is having the ability to share things and work as a unit as opposed to an individual. A husband and wife are supposed to work together in all they do; this can be a very tricky transition because we aren't use to having to do everything with another person.

I found a great video about enduring through life and never leaving your spouses side. Marriage isn't about being selfish and self-centered. It is about putting yourself aside and being there every step of the way for the one you love. This video illustrates the importance of love and care for one another in a healthy and successful marriage. If you are not willing to put yourself aside and be there one hundred percent and one hundred percent of the time, then you are not fully committed to that person. Marriage is all about transitions, it is up to us to find that special someone who can endure all those challenges and changes together.
