Throwback

I feel like I'm a throwback to a generation gone by.

Love, marriage, commitment, fidelity, they've become archaic notions that so many in my generation feel aren't realistic today. "Marriage is different than it was 20 years ago," they say.

Obviously. But love isn't. I think love is the one thing that stays the same through the ages. I think that nowadays people build their commitments and marriages on things other than love, thus, our ridiculous divorce rate.

It's disappointing that we live in a society that is so jaded that many of us think that a good marriage just isn't realistic. I sometimes think I should've been born in a different decade.

I think it's time to get back to the basics.
