Importance of Families.

This was a good week for class. I truly enjoyed it and I want to start with a claim that if you disagree with me, that’s fine! This is what we discussed in class and how I feel towards the matter. Please don’t think my thoughts are doctrine and that it’s the only way to live, you can choose your own path and live happily ever after. Fidelity. Fidelity means “faithfulness to a person, cause, or belief, demonstrated by continuing loyalty and support.” When one is married, they should be faithful and true to one another in all aspects; emotional, mental, physical, and spiritually. My teacher discussed that even with our hobbies that we should do them with our spouses. He shared a story of how two couples would go running together. Couple 1 are XX and couple 2 are OO.

If any of y’all have any advice, please share! We discussed what makes a wedding and what makes a marriage. When reading and discussing what makes a good wedding, we talked about how society sees it.

This week’s topic has been all about dating. It’s been a really fun and interesting topic to discuss and honestly, learn about. On that note, a question for you. What in the world is dating? The newer generation seem to think of dating as “hanging out.” We just spend time with the other watching television, homework, or dinner together and call it good. However, back in the good ole days dating was so much more. It was going on several dates with several different people. It’s a much different experience than it is today. My teacher shared some of his dating experiences when he was in college and those were things I’d never experienced or heard happen to any of my friends or fellow classmates. I want to discuss the Know-Quo. People need to be together; not texting or simply face timing but actually being with each other. Also with that, not playing on social media or playing games on their cell phones. When you are out and about and see young couples that look to be on dates or...
