Sitting on the fence? Why?
As we know that there are about a million divorces happening in United States alone each year. Therefore, this is clearly an issue that is crying out for our attention. Why is it that the very mention of this topic drives many away? Why is it that we do not want to face up to the fact that divorces are happening in more households in United States than we are ready to admit?
Lately, we've been hearing news about celebrities fighting for money over ugly divorces in California. Meanwhile more celebrities are exposed from their affairs and adulteries outside their marriages. Most recent cases are David Letterman and Tiger Woods. How can we tolerate such behaviors in our society? Why do we have to accept this behavior as a norm? Do we truly mean what we said in our wedding vows to our spouses on the day we've got married? Do members of our families mean anything to us any more? Do we truly love our families or just with our words not with our hearts? Adulteries destroy our families. We need an united heart to say no to divorces and adulteries. We need to protect our families first, above all.
Have you ever wonder that you are talking to the 4 walls and no one is listening..? Well, we need to begin by not sitting on the fence any more. Start by doing something, maybe small and well within your reach, in your family and later, move forward to do something that would change your community, and eventually to create an impact in your nation and around the world.
America, we need to address this issue. It is too big to be swept under the carpet and pretend it never happened. Wake up and face the truth before it's too late!
