William Shakespeare

when to marry

When to marry? 'Tis a question oft asked, and oft answered with a resounding 'when the time is right.' But how can one know when the time is right? Is it when the birds are singing and the sun is shining? Is it when the moon casts a gentle light on the night sky? Is it when the stars align and the heavens open up? Nay, I say, for the time is never right for marriage until the heart is ready. The heart must be ready to love and be loved, to give and receive, to trust and be trusted. It must be ready to accept the joys and sorrows that come with marriage, and to pledge undying loyalty and devotion. Only when the heart is ready can one truly know when to marry. But even then, I would caution against haste. For marriage is a sacred bond, not to be entered into lightly. 'Tis a decision that should be made with much thought and consideration, lest one be consumed with regret. But if one is ready, and knows in their heart that marriage is right, then let the wedding bells ring, and let the joyous celebration begin!
