WHO is the PERSON???



We all know that language our mommies use whenever we tell them we are seeing someone especially if we let them know it’s a serious relationship. ”Let me pray about it first” is the sentence that sends shiver of scares into our hearts. After a few days, our first contact with our mom would initiate a curious look and we ask in matter-of fact manner WHO IS THE PERSON? (Person being whoever the prophet has picked from the list) .Whatever comes out of the said ‘prayer’ determines what happens to the relationship. Because of this, most people have more than one potential love partner because they can easily have choices to write in a paper and give to the mom, which of course ends in the altar or some prophet’s bibles.
By this, so many people have ended up happy and so many people have regretted also. Why is this? Even some seers would categorically tell you that your star and a particular person’s star crossed and at the end things will not turn out the way it had been foreseen. I have heard of stories where it was foreseen that two partners’ stars crossed indeed and they ended up divorced.
Even somehow I personally get to wonder if fate was the secret to a happy home even if there were challenges or if it was commitment and tolerance and those who had crisis and eventual divorce in marriage, was it fate too who had decided that they could not be together? In fact what role does fate plays in shaping our marital life as well as future happiness? Is love by nature so complex that we have to go seek spiritual advice instead of following what our hearts want? What does one need to do if one’s star is not maritally fated with whom one loves most? Is having multiple relationship justified by this?
