Fractured Cohesiveness

               Marriage seems to be a four letter word in today's society.  The statistic of this sacred institution needs a makeover which is an uphill battle.  The unfortunate reality is that the divorce rate is higher than the marriage proposal.  I have been married for fifteen years which has had it's share of rough patches but every situation has been resolved calmly and positively. 
               The cohesiveness of the marriage institution is fractured.  I hear about marriages that end in divorce, separations, living with someone else, remarried, blended families, and irreconcilable differences every day.  There is no quick fix since the situation didn't get this way overnight. The road to repairing this fracture is going to be a long one and both parties need to be in agreement. 
                Marriage isn't for everyone but for those that take that step it's a vow that shouldn't be broken.  Repair the fracture by building a marriage that is cohesive and full of love.
