Couples


In every direction there are two of everything. Salt and Pepper, Milk and Honey, Peas and Carrots. Fuck that.


You can be strong on your own. I am finding this out quickly and I rather fancy it. When I look around to see how people are interacting with one another I think of a pack of wild horses. They run together completely in sync because they are meant to be together. As we are meant to be together....but is it entirely correct for men and women to stay together. I am not suggesting the notion of homosexuality rather the concept of marriage. Perhaps we are meant to interact together on a specific level but not exceeding the level of cohabitation. Would it be more likely that there would be less occurrence in the world up to and including coupling if we spent more time in our own solace instead of together. Most of the relationships I observe are a complete bust. Ill-fitted couples interacting together, cheating, fighting, spending and complaining. Would it not be better to push that bucket of trash out the window and rather spend more time alone or with friends. Rather than the tenacious co mingling of selves we give space and time necessary. Then we avoid the cosmic incidence and coincidence of the fact that I know 99% of the couples(unless newly formed) are terribly disappointed.


Has anyone considered perhaps the concept of marriage is outdated? Maybe we are meant to be alone on our journeys? Who knows really?
