change should one want to be the best they can be in that relationship and generally in life. Since I got married I have seen the areas where I can change and be better for my relationship and in my life.

Marriage comes with what I call a binding agreement to cover and protect each other, literally and otherwise. I am my wifes keeper and I am her cover, when someone attacks her I am and should be there for her. The other part or side of marriage is that you automatically becoming a dumping ground, when your other half has had a bad day they need to unload and you have to be there to listen.

Marriage is the only friendship with privileges that you can get anytime (should you all be in agreement) It is a fun union were you can express yourselves freely. I used to think that only young couples could have fun in every room at anytime, well lets just say as long as you are married they are no boundaries or age restrictions. To the slow ones, I am talking about love making, marriage give you the platform to enjoy yourselves. There is just one thing to know, what you imagine or heard does not necessarily mean you should apply that in your love life. You have to be in agreement, it has to be a team effort and you should both enjoy the relationship together.

Marriage is not a prison as many people say, the concepts of marriage cannot be defined by one statement or a phrase but they are fundamental concepts that build or show a good strong marriage. The most important aspect of marriage is that it is a team effort, different styles brought together to attack a situation and achieve success. I look at my mentors, they have been married for twenty seven years and they are still going strong, my parents have been married for thirty three years and still going, marriage works and it can work if there is a common purpose of unity. Personally these are concepts that work for me, I have seen them work and I am using them and they are working for me.
