Wedding day is a day of joy especially for the bride, whose dreams has come true. It is a day of great jubilee, but to some women the wedding day has become a very big nightmare.
I read some articles a few weeks ago about what some brides put themselves through just because they want to look like the perfect bride on their wedding day. How some of them will go to an abnormal extent of injecting themselves with all kinds of drugs, undergoing all kinds of surgery, starving themselves and doing all kinds of unimaginable things to themselves just because they want to look like 'Cindarella' on their wedding day. That is why I ask if there is anything like the perfect bride. The answer is, there is nothing like a perfect bride since imperfection is in all of us, so it will be a waste of time trying to make yourself look perfect. The wedding is just for one day, living together with your spouse will lasts for a lifetime. The only perfect bride is a bride who understands that the wedding day is the biginning of a new journey - that will last a lifetime - and not the end. The perfect bride is that bride that understands the sacredness of her vow and not the splendour of her wedding gown. The perfect bride is that bride that understand that marriage is a serious business, and not some play thing that she can discard at any time.
The perfect bride is that bride that understands that she will be a bride just for one day, but a mother and a wife for the rest of her life. A perfect bride is that bride who understands that her decision today will affect a lot of people. I am not saying that we should start treating our wedding day like a funeral day, all am saying is that we should not let all those frivolities cloud our mind and stop us from seeing what it is we are really doing. Marriage is not something you go into when you feel like and pull out anytime you start getting uncomfortable, neither do we calculate a woman's achievements by the number of divorces she has had. Before you do something try and know the consequences that goes with it. When you marry and decide to pull out when you are no more comfortable, what will happen to your partner and the kids - if you have kids -? Some kids are jeopardized today because of the rash decisions of their parents. So before you start it, make sure you understands all that is involved. And if you understand all these, don't waste your energy anymore trying to make yourself what you already are - a perfect bride!!!
