Commitment

Two people who’ve professed love for each other? Check. Family and friends? Check and check. Cake, drinks, and gifts? Check, check, check. Sounds like a wedding reception doesn’t it?

Nope. It’s a divorce party.

Friends and family had gathered. The wedding party was standing in their respective places. Everyone was waiting on the bride to come walking down the aisle.

But standing was a difficult task for this young bride – let alone walking.

Lots of people bemoan the morally-bankrupt lyrics that fill today’s popular music. Whether it’s Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines,” Lady Gaga singing about a “disco stick,” or just about anything from Miley Cyrus, it seems as though today’s artists are fixated on promoting loose sexual ethics.

Just like musicians did 60 years ago….

When perfectly sane humans with functioning taste buds swear off meat, they’re labeled vegetarians. The remainder of their sad, miserable lives is filled with the memories of how wonderful a medium-well ribeye tasted. Fortunately, a few vegetarians have discovered a way of coping with temptation.

They just eat meat.

In September of 2015, TIME Magazine sought to answer the question, “Is monogamy over?” With increased rates of marital infidelity, the invention of cheating sites like Ashley Madison, and the rise of Internet porn, it’s little wonder the query is being investigated.

Should we all just go pawn our wedding rings?

The old saying, “Blood is thicker than water,” is true in more ways than one. It illustrates just how powerful the bond between family can be. When family members care for one another the way God intended, it can be a sight to behold.

Just asking Jesse Jackson.

“The great Christian revolutions come not by the discovery of something that was not known before. They happen when somebody takes radically something that was always there.”

Unfortunately, many people’s talk is cheap. They say one thing and then do another which makes their promises as empty as their integrity. If the commitments they’ve made might end up costing them something, they break them without any reservation.

But when Michael Jordan gave his word, he kept it…even if it could cost him millions.

Till death do us part. That’s the vow most men and women take at their marriage…and the vow that too many break in divorce. Paul Rampell, a real estate lawyer in South Florida, has a “solution” for the problem of high divorce rates in America.

He suggests a “wedlease” instead of wedlock.
