A CRAZY WORLD

Now, it is very common for women
to go into marriage with some
crazy beliefs and ideologies. I’ve
met those who believe that it is
normal for men to have flings here
and there. They even tell you to
prepare your mind so you won’t
have heart attack. The most
important thing is for you to be
oblivious of it. He is free to do it
but he should keep his condoms far
from the reach of your eyeballs.

That way you’re safe. Whoever
blinded the heart of women? You
may not altogether agree with my
stance but I am writing as a
Christian and a custodian of truth. I
don’t care about what tradition has
to say on this matter, we all know
it is a wrong concept, even our
conscience will testify to it.

The world is just going crazy, a lot
of philosophies are springing up
daily. The social media
disseminates plenty of this craze
and if you aren’t careful, you won’t
even know what is wrong and what
is right. We need to remind
ourselves that even if our moral
values are depleting on a daily
basis, it doesn’t mean we should
embrace error because it’s the fad
of the day.

In the first place, why would you
go into marriage with this kind of
belief? That’s a faulty way to lay
your foundation. I have said before
and I will say again that we cannot
totally absolve ourselves from most
of the injustice meted out to
women today. I see the way some
mothers train their men today and I
shake my head in pity. In some
homes, the mothers will say boys
don’t do house chores. Some others
train them to be bullies. They beat
up their female siblings and instead
of teaching them how bad it is to
raise their hand against a female,
the mother will tell the girl, “didn’t
you know he was a boy?” and the
boy continues to use his strength
negatively. Some mothers will buy
condoms for their teenage boys but
warn the girls to have self-control.

If women in my generation believe
that men will always be unfaithful
to their spouses, won’t they
transfer the same beliefs to their
daughters and sons? When will this
cycle of rottenness break? The key
to making a positive change is in
your hands woman. Train your kids
to be responsible children. Train
them to have self-control. Let them
know that immorality and adultery
is wrong.

Teach them to become
responsible fathers and mothers.
Let the next generation of men and
women be beautifully different
because you dared to show them
the path of truth, justice and
righteousness. If you and I can
stand for what is right, I think this
world will be a better place.

And yes, until we go back to the
author of our lives to see his plan
and purpose for marriage and we
follow his guidelines, we may
never get it all right in our homes,
society, nation and world at large.
