Marriage

What is marriage to you? This is such an important question for everyone because evrybody should understand the importance of marriage. Marriage is very important because it's a new chapter to your life. Marriage helps you understand the meaning of being faithful. I am not married but I do plan to in the future. I have very strong argument a about why marriage is important and what I think about it's decline in America. I think that marriage is alive in America even though some studies say that it is declining through time. One thing I think is that marriage is strong. I think today marriage is moderate in America because not much people are getting married nowadays. Although, I do think it should be strong because it's a part of life for us humans. Yes, I do believe that marriage is still part of the social fabric. It may not be as much as it was but it is still there. One big question is if it should be in the social fabric, and my answer to that is definitely yes because that's how it's always been and that shouldn't be changed. I think Rivera's essay is very interesting because she explains to us that Mexico City created temporary marriage licenses. Her ideas in temporary marriage is towards doubt in the idea because she thinks that a marriage license is as if you're doubting the marriage from the start. I agree with her because you are basically testing yourself if you are ready and if you want to be married. Some points I agree though but mostly I think the idea of temporary marriage is a bad idea. Some ideas about a marriage license that I agree is that it's for people who aren't sure if the person they're with is the right one. Another idea that I agree is the fact that the marriage license let's you know if you want to be married or not. Marriage shouldn't be taken as a hole. It should be taken really serious because marriage is a bond between your significant other and you promise then to forever stay loyal and faithful to each other through the thick and the thin.
