When he saw her from across the room he had a feeling that she was the kind of woman he will love to spend the rest of his life with,can a lifetime commitment just be reduced to a passing feeling,it makes my heart wonder.....with all the recent happenings in families round the world,it has become pertinent for men and women to sit back and think of the tide of hormones that just rise and fall,much more than mere words to understand that love and family cannot be reduced to a passing feeling.
No matter how civilzed the human society becomes we cannot overlook the fact that the family is the bedrock of every society,if our homes are in chaos,it will become difficult to address social problems.
How many children today are growing up without a father figure to guide and show them love,there is an increasing rise in a fatherless and motherless generation,even when the children live in the same house with their parents,it really breaks my heart in different directions as i see our children growing up without parental guidance.How does a father explain a situation where he leaves for work and never comes back home and yet his family is worried sick about him,changes all his phone lines and leaves no link as to how his family can find him,the beautiful girl he married is thrown off balance and the children are left wondering what went wrong,quite sad you may say....what about when dad lives in the same house with his children and yet is so absent from their lives,maybe only dishes out instructions from time to time,what about when dad keeps concubines who are about the age of his children?how does he raise his children with the values that will sustain them as productive citizens.What have we reduced ourselves to?when did we become so heartless and carefree not bothering about how our actions affect our young ones.what can i say,except a simple prayer that God will heal our homes........
