The world has gone mad and Chris Rock, along with the people commenting on this site and watching his movie and movies like this, are the proof. People who think they want things that they don't have are the people who aren't completely happy with themselves and life. Nothing will ever be satisfying for those kinds of people... It's not about the other side of the grass being greener, it's about them perceiving it that way and how they look at the world around them. The people who are happy in life are the people who know what they have and are happy with it, grateful for it and are the ones who see life for what it really is. For every little thing you think you don't have, there is something you do have that you aren't appreciating. For every thing you think you need, there is something that comes with it that you aren't considering. Men and women alike look outside their relationships to find that thing they're missing from their life without looking at themselves first. They think that one affair will make them feel better but it doesn't... It just ends up being more complicated and out of control then what their original situation was. They don't realize the fact they need to work on themselves first and work with their partner before they consider adding a third party to the mix. The women who mess around with married men are just as empty inside as the men who are fooling around with them. They think they want what other women have... But the reality of it is, they don't know what they want... If they really wanted that commitment and security, they'd start from scratch and work for it the way the wife did. There are no short-cuts to happiness and the people who think there are these magical little short-cuts are the ones who will never be happy. When a marriage fails... It's both the man and the woman's fault. The women stop doing all the things that made their man fall inlove with them in the first place and men stop being the men they used to be. People don't seem to realize a marriage is a continuous effort and just because you got the final commitment doesn't mean it can't be taken away. You have to work just as hard, if not harder to keep a marriage going as you do to keep a relationship going. Too many women think that once they have a man, that's it... They don't have to keep trying to impress them because they have them. That mindset is what leads to them losing their husband... Same goes for men. They think that now they've taken that final step and they don't have to go that extra mile to make their woman happy but they do... And they always will. The people who think marriage isn't hard and a constant effort are the ones who shouldn't get married and the people who think it takes more than just the two of you and that commitment to each other's happiness are the ones who turn marriage in to a mockary. You don't need flings or flirting or therapists or get-aways to make a marriage work... You just need to be the best person you can be and constantly strive to be the best wife or husband you can be. Listen to your partner, do what they ask of you without hesitation and if it's something you just can't do then find a compromise... It doesn't always have to be one way or the other. Marriage is about that happy medium, you just have to figure out what needs to be done and what needs to change to find it. Ladies, don't stop buying the sexy underwear and doing all those kinky little things your man loves... And men, don't stop telling your woman how important she is to you and how beautiful you think she is because sometimes... All it takes is a few little words to make your woman fall inlove with you all over again. Marriage is a huge responsibility that should be taken seriously... And if you're not going to work to keep it then you shouldn't be jumping in to it.
