Yes, I obviously knew the world wasn't perfect. But so long as I made the small, and regular adjustments to the change, I didn't take note. It "wasn't important". All things are important in their own right. Though things that are out of our hands are not personally pivotal, we are wise to consider and attempt to understand them.
The chain reaction of emotion, to relational deterioration is highlighted in population. Our emotional needs are not cared for because of the lack of respect in our society. Our current Canadian population is falling due to lack of families. Lack of possible child-bearing relationships? No. These relationships are ones that lack consistency. These are not marriages. They are one-night stands, (quote: "gone wrong"), turned to abortions, and more emotional agony. These only lead to more pain, and more quick fixes. Easily working through the nation of already broken families, and smashing hope at every turn.
Somehow, even when this painful chain is realized by individuals, their attempt to accomplish success in this "technologically advanced" society, causes more pain. Even when a mate is found, and a marriage relationship achieved, both are socially pushed to attain education and a good job. Jobs which take the time that would be used to form and care for a healthy family. Jobs whose only function is to stash away money, and buy large flashy things. Visual assets to show their impressive social status. Things, that mean nothing. Families, that break for lack of care. This is the nation that we live in.
True, north, strong and free.
Yes.
Free to lack respect? I hope not.
Why not the simplicity of one-income households? The realization that relationships hold far greater value than things of this world? That relationships that last are far less painful, and you find yourself loved, through loving another. Resting in the knowledge that you have mutual love.
Why not?
