Marriage And Divorce

Except pool blood and chicken feather,
Marriage is not a lifesaver.

Don't put all weight in the cabin,
Or use marriage as a safe haven.

Divorce is a major misfortune in life,
Leaving unsuitable person is a good strife.

Decision to divorce is much more difficult,
Decision to marriage is easy as opening a vault.

Marriage should be the icing on the cake,
Divorce is an emo-psycho exhausting war freak.

Hello Hugo, yes there is a difference between divorce and marriage. My husband was divorced. once. That was the 2nd wife. the 1st wife got sick and died. I was number 3 wife. He got sick and died. The divorced wife remained friendly with him. they had children together. Much love here. /Darlene/

Hello Hugo, Yes we have the law to divorce in Canada. Here couples do separate. This gives the couple a chance to decidde if they want to try again. If the husband is an abuser that would be a hard situation to live in Yes the wife could be the abusive to. Hugo when i meet the right person i would like to wed for the 2nd time. Love you here. /Darlene/

I feel your situation, Darlene. It's good that you have the law to divorce. Here in the Philippines, we don't have law to divorce. It's hard to separate legally. It's really a serious matter for our marriage here. You should not commit mistakes in choosing your partner otherwise is really hard to live life forever. So, you choose to remain single now. Love you here, Hugo.
