topic 46 what does marriage mean to you?
Marriage? Shit. There isn't a lot of things in the world that I consider sacred. When I think about my childhood the thing that stands out is how much my parents loved each other. I'm talking that kind of love that the best movies are written about. You know, the stuff that girls get all weepy over and then look at their boyfriends hoping that could happen with them. The truth is, it probably won't happen with them. It probably won't happen to most people because that kind of love is once in a lifetime. It is the kind of love that leads to marriage and the ability to take those vows in front of God and keep them.
Honestly, I don't see myself ever getting married. That is way more Sammy's bag than mine. I don't make a lot of promises because I know I can't keep them. I've had a couple of girlfriends and shit always went down the same way. I got busy and forgot to call. I said something without thinking about how they would feel about it. I refused to apologize when work got in the way and I missed out on plans we had made. My life is complicated and busy. It's hard to fit someone else into it. Hell, half the time I have a hard time sharing space with Sammy and we grew up together.
Marriage is something people should do if they know they can keep that promise. When they know that they have met the one person in the world that will possess them and own them in a way no one else is going to be able to touch. If you find that, then fuck, hang on to it. Cherish it. Because it's unlikely you will ever fucking find it again.
