Re: How Important Is It to Marry . . .
marriage is a very beautiful event that can happen to anyone. being with the right person is essential.
it is necessary to be able to know him or her with full confidence, kindness, mutual regard, care and honesty.
this is a friendship, which always will need trust and grace t be truthful to each other.
same culture matters in a huge way, so that your spouse may speak easily to your parents and is able to be a strong partner as a couple's example for community's sake and the couple's own sake for timeless bonding that cannot be broke by anything in the world.
similarly, religion will matter if you and your spouse follow it carefully.
culture will matter, as long as you follow its good values.
difference in these things' effect on the off spring and the couple's own relationship can be really telling as they will trickle in the absense or presence
of the same.
things can go either way, yes, in case of a marriage between a couple that has differing backgrounds.
but when things grow out of proportion, and are GROWN out of proportion, then the best efforts to save any marriage or to build one on gentler and genuine grounds, will go amuck, when language, religion, culture is perceived to be the same, when actually it is worse or the same in ignorance and deceit, greed and doubtfulness so on and so forth.
