Settling Down

Last night, I was struck by what I've seen in television. The anchor said "In the Philippines, the persons who decide to get married are getting less every year..." Statistical data were presented.

It made me realize that I'm one of those lucky ones who was able to experience how it is to be brought to the altar and exchange vows with the one you love. Reasons like financial matters and fear of commitment were set aside by my honey so we could exchange the words "I do".

Way back in my college years, a nun friend told me that the opposite of love is not hatred but fear. Thus, because love conquers fear then if two persons are in love and they are in the right age, there is no reason why a couple should not get married.
