Reality vs Love ❤️
Greetings Hive Ghana family 👋,
I'm so glad to have you here.
Love is said to be blind, but when it comes to a critical case, reality opens your eyes to see clearly.
Love is a wonderful, tender feeling that everyone embraces. Finding true love mostly takes a lot of time and patience searching for the right partner who will truly love, respect, cherish, value, and accept you for — who you are. Applying wisdom, using life experiences, and lessons learned helps you make the best decision of your life in choosing the love of your life.
Spending a very long time believing that we both are made for each other, building ourselves together to the extent that we made up our minds to upgrade the love we share to get married and live as husband and wife.
As the topic says: Love vs Reality
You are ready to marry the love of your life, but right at the last minute, a day before walking down the aisle with him/her, you find out that you are both sickle cell carriers meaning you could give birth to kids with sickle cell disease. Are you going to let go of the love of your life? Go ahead with the marriage? What would you do?
This is very terrible and so complicated, knowing what the outcome will be if we both decide to continue the marriage. It’s going to be heartbreaking,painful, and full of tears. Deciding to go ahead with the marriage will definitely be the worst mistake ever.
It’s true that love 💘 is strong; I’ve always believed that true love is worth fighting for, even when things get hard. But in a critical situation like this, it may not be enough so love has to give way for reality to take its place.
Stepping back is also caring, because I am not taking the decision for any other reason but for the sake of the future the innocent unborn children whom God has given me the privilege to decide what happens to Them.
I believe everything happens for a reason. I see it as a revelation that came at the dying minute deciding to save the future from a dangerous disease like sickle cell is the best. Children are said to be a blessing from God, not a curse. So choosing to safeguard their future and shaping it to a better and brighter place where I will always smile with my spouse and play with my kids as much as I want is the best decision.
Not a place where I will be restless, feel so uncomfortable, shed tears, and experience heartbreak 💔. The love I have for my partner may even fade and vanish away; frustration will fill my face every second. I can’t stand to see my children in pain, face the damage of personal reputation, and deal with high hospital bills, which are not even guaranteed to heal them.
Life sometimes comes tough but requires sacrifice to be perfect. If such challenges come my way, I will definitely feel bad, disappointed, sad, and in pain. We had come a long way, found true love, lived perfectly well, and agreed to live as husband and wife. I will frown, looking at the printed invitation cards, and finally have an honest discussion with my partner on how to end everything and move on in our separate ways for good.
Love is good, but doing what is right is the best.
In life, it’s always advisable for everyone to know his/her genotype and that of their partner especially when love or marriage is involved. This can help in decision-making and guide your personality with no compromise or regrets.
Thanks 🙏 for reading through, and have a nice day.
