In the span of 20 minutes, I've read two articles on marriage that have thrown me for a loop on the Today Show website. I don't know that I'll rant and rave about my opposition to the ideas both of these articles portray- but it does make me sad and my heart hurt for what I believe the true purpose of marriage and a family is, compared to what people seem think it is and seem to be missing out on. I like the Today Show, and I know they're just bringing to light people's "options" for different kinds of lifestyles and such, but I wouldn't EVER think of living apart from my husband by choice or not marry because it would just be better for each of us financially. The word that comes to my mind is SELFISHNESS in both articles. That's just me though. When you wed, you promise to become as one- it's not about you anymore... it's about your family you've just started. Anyway... I'll stop, but tell me what you think. Seriously- I want to know. I have to admit though, the second one is pretty funny though...

Wow those articles are amazing. I guess it really puts your priorities in place. The world is changing so much recently.
I will be with Jeremy for eternity so if I can't live with him now and make it work then something is wrong.
