A Wrap Up

Technically speaking, divorce by definition nullifies marriage. For me, it defeats the purpose of getting married. In a wider sense, I do not approve of divorce because there is annulment and I believe it is enough if marriage is not working between the couple. Divorce would be the primary hindrance in promoting family values. The problem is women and children are constantly getting abused, so if that is the case, will separation be enough? I believe if we really want to end the problem regarding abuses, we should rather penalize the wrong actions. But most of all, uplifting morals and values would be the long term key towards this problem.

According to my interviewee, divorce nullifies the whole sanctity of marriage. It completely eradicates the people’s values and it makes people vulnerable for the fact that it makes people lax that there will always be a way out of a marriage, by this; divorce is foreseen as a solution to every marriage problem there is present. I believe that the sanctity of marriage should be kept, but what about those people who are in an abusive relationship? Will we let him or her be stuck in a marriage she/he is not happy in? I strongly believe that marriage makes the world go round. It is the happiness to both couples ( at least for starters). And it completely sacrifices the single lives of both couples. This single life is more often than not missed by both of them, that is why there is a presence of a little bit of resentment. I believe that it has been the case ever since marriage and commitment is invented. Commitment is a big thing and as cliché as it may possibly sound, commitment is big responsibility. It does entail having a big responsibility because it makes use of commitment and love with one another.

            In my poll that I have posted here in my blogger site, 83 % said yes to divorce while 16 % said no to divorce. This only says that no matter what race or what religion, it will always be human nature to be self-greedy, to think about oneself first before others. Divorce, though, is not being greedy, it is being safe and it is giving you a new chance to live life the way you want to live it. I believe that divorce is a life yet to be lived by those who need it, not by those who want it. There is always a fine line between needs and wants, by now you should have known the pros and cons of divorce. What do you think? Do you think it is a need or a want? Do you think it is morality or pure personal will and greed? I continue to stand firm on my belief that divorce is a choice not an obligation. It is a form of help not the sole solution. It is the epitome of freedom in a sense of necessity. Divorce is pro-choice, pro-chances and pro-change.
