a certain acquaintance is getting married this end of may and i happened to chat with him today... i congratulated him of course.. alam niyo ba sagot niya?? "ganyan talaga kung tumatanda na.. ikaw din malapit na"
well for one thing it reminded me that i need a boyfriend.. darn him hhe and then it made me realize that maybe marriage is not as ideal or as romantic as i thought it should be.. it seems that marriage is not something that happens because of fate or destiny. it seems that marriage IS an obligation as we grow older..
of course everybody knows the pattern..
as a baby- all we need to do is i dunno learn to talk and walk
as a kid - all we need to do is to be a nice obedient kid
as a student - all we need to do is pass exams and graduate (be it kindergarten, elementary, highschool or college)
as a adult - all we needd to do is GET a job, GET a husband and GET pregnant..
it seems that we're on the end of the cycle.. and then we repeat it all again.. so. what exactly are we suppose to look forward to in this life? lifetime of work and problems??
