My Ideas On Love and Marriage

It is a human emotion that changes how people act alone and with other people. Someone can love a pet, another person or a family member. Usually when someone gets married they would have to have known that person for a while and it would have to be someone that they are friends with. For someone to truly love someone they have to truly know them. Some people believe in love in first sight I don't believe in that what it is, is when two people see each other once and are attracted to each other most of those people would "be in love" for a few weeks and then just be "friends" or never see each other again. Maybe about 1-5% percent of those people would end up getting married and then about half of those who are married would end up getting a divorce. The longer someone is married to someone else the less likely it would be that they get divorced because they know how to talk things out instead of just ending it and going back to what they were like before not being with someone else. I believe in the idea of marriage but only with the correct person because so many people are just marrying the first time they see each other then they realize that they don't like the person and get divorced. Someone should marry if they truly love and have loved the person for a long time and if they know all about the other person. Love has to be earned not bought and getting married is earned depending on what you do with your love. True love and marriage is done without expecting anything in return. "Nor ought but love from thee give recompense. Thy love is such I can no way repay;"(Bradstreet)

My ideas on happiness.

My idea of happiness is to explore everything around you and around the world but you have to stop and look at everything around you you can't just give everything a quick glance you have to look at one thing at a time. Really think about it, then once you have thought it and thought all that there is to think about that one thing. Think about something else, make sure what you are thinking about is something that would make you happy. You have to be grateful about anything in the first place if you do want to be happy. You have to enjoy your life and not just live through it. It's best to start looking around and enjoying the world around you as soon as you can because you may never get to have an experience again and then you will have forever missed out on it. If you have something like a birthday and someone throws you a surprise party you have to stop and look when everyone yells surprise and really enjoy it. You also have to be grateful because it is a unique experience that nobody else will get to have one quite like it. If you are grateful you can enjoy it if you aren't grateful for anything then why would you want to be happy?
