Remember when you were 8, sitting with your best friend. You each made a promise and to seal that promise you made each other pinky swear. How deep of a promise that was at that moment. You now were committed to your best friend. Loyalty was at an all time high. Now that your older, making a pinky promise means nothing to you. Just some childish tradition that ends the moment you learn how to diseave the people you care about. The moment you find your way out of a pinky promise is the day you lose a bit of your trust.
Maybe we need to go back to our 8 year old days were promises really meant something to us. Maybe instead of sealing our vows with a kiss, instead, seal it with a pinky swear. Maybe it'll mean more. Maybe that should be our new ending to the wedding ceremonies. Nothing would happen, since no one take those vows seriously. If you dont take the vows seriously, then whats the point of marriage? Why bother getting married if you have the risk of ending it later.
Today, I am afraid of committing myself to marriage. Will my future husband take those seriously? Will sealing our vows with a kiss be enough or will I go back to my 8 year old self and gain commitment that is found sealed within a pinky swear or maybe a kiss?
