256's July Journal Day 24: Loyalty Towards Extinction

Men and women are equal nowadays. Speaking of being loyal and cheating, both have the same possibility. Still, men are seen as having more possibility in cheating their partner. Having a talk with a friend the other day, he mentioned that Loyalty is getting tougher in the world today. Maybe you wanted it all to be clean, but that's only possible at the beginning of the journey; when you are still unexposed and naive. When you get your hands on money and power and greed will start to take place in your life. Suddenly all the other values become less important cos you think you are totally in control, and you wouldn't want to miss all the fun that life can offer. This is when the sacredness of marriage institution, will not matter much anymore. Knowing that you know you can pay for anything, you would pay for easy fun and even that means you have to burn your values. That's the kind of idea that he told me. I said that it does make sense. It's nothing new, right? Cheating husbands/boyfriends, Oh, it's too common. What do you think? I claimed that Loyalty is very important to keep the marriage. So if he's right about all those above, does it mean that marriage survival is getting low? How about us ladies, who are still hoping to get a Happily Ever After marriage? Is it possible or we can forget about it? That our future husband gonna cheat on us no matter what? I just refuse to accept that. That's why I asked that friend, Can faith in religion help someone to be faithful? I think I hit it quite right. All the people I have associated with, those cheating husbands, they are always lack of religious faith. They barely spare time for their religion. I wonder, those who really spare time praying and giving thanks, these people usually count their blessings. They will get close to their values and they always think about doing the right thing everyday. Then I wonder, if temptations come to them, isn't it logic that they can ignore it? They definitely can choose not to deal with the risk. They definitely gonna use that good head on their shoulders, Agree? I still believe that, in the midst of evil, there are people who are putting extra effort to live life the righteous way. This people gonna show to the rest of them that The Minority still exist and yes, that loyalty still not yet extinct. God willing. :)
