Therefore, how could we tell one to be proud?  Is it self-worshipping?

Strange title, you may say.  But careers and professions are usually for two evils: money and power, which is self-worshiping - investing in making yourself better than others.  And we speak about being proud!  Is a mother proud of her pie or of feeding her child?  There is the difference between the two, but sometimes in feeding her child, too much compliments would take away from the value of the pie, because compliments accepted by one are self-worshiping and then your love in giving has to diminish because you’re the best.

The fashion industry, even the fitness fashions are always to lead one to self-worshipping.  Never loving yourself, believing that substances and perhaps fitness, sun tanning will make you look better than what you are.  For instance, a young woman wanting to look better for her wedding: spending hours in a sun-tanning place.  And saying: “I have to look better.”  So therefore, there’s the reason why this marriage should not take place because she says she’s not good enough.  And then she asks to be given away.  I love my daughter too much, but I mean, the one without the tan.  I always look beneath things, within, rather than the surface to find beauty.  Perhaps she should know that.

What makes a bride beautiful, if she had depleted herself before her wedding?  How could you give yourself fresh, when your beauty has ended because of the silence of your past?  What makes a bride beautiful, and remember people marry at any age, much age difference, different races and different religions?  Why does marriage take place?  Because it seems that somebody will complete you.  But both are seeking to be completed by the other but neither one loves themselves enough to know that they could be the lining of the heart of the others, which is what brought them to look at each other the first time, unless they modified themselves physically because they never saw anything good enough to marry.

What is the purpose of marriage?  Is it a celebration or feeling legal in what you did illegally the day before, like cohabiting, where now the next day wipes out all the cohabiting of the past. It’s like an old truck pulled out of the field and made new again.  And you see, the young go down Portage Avenue, driving their whole things crazy to impress the new things to come that they have neglected who were the lining of their hearts.

Now man thinks that unless he has money, a nice car and be fit from the gym that he’ll never make it in life.  You even hear them say, “Watch the chicks look at me with this car!”  That’s why they use half-naked woman in car commercials, subliminal messages, saying, “You’ll have all this flesh in you car!”  And some young women believe that that flesh that the boys are looking for will make them get a ride.  They’re always taken for a ride.  And the direction is nowhere.

What is marriage?  It is to discover the inner part of you in what makes the inner of you feel happy about life: the heart of God in the love of a beautiful heart in woman.  This is why that within every successful man there’s a woman in his shadow.  But you never know who she is and if you never know, you will know by his success.  And if you know who she is, it will be by his failure.  Because his failure is to invest himself into something that he will neglect and it falls apart.

This is why that marriage is but a document; a legal paper that you could obtain from the courts and also from Churches who promote free sexuality in marriage, a license of prostitution, not for the purpose of the human race where man could look of himself in the carving of his alike or the hand of God into the sanctuary of love: woman’s womb.

To my brides: I call you my brides.  Age matters not.  It only establishes suffering.  But when you are loved, you look eternal in your happiness and your joy.  This is why, as a father for this nation, not as a leader, but as a father, that’s what you boys and girls look like to me: you are both suffering in discovering in each other the inner part of yourself presented to you in each other.

Thank you for reading.
