Considering the issues on legal separation, annulment and divorce and rapid
cultural changes, would you still believe in long engagement and marriage? Why?
Despite the cases of legal separation, annulment divorce, and rapid cultural
changes, I still believe in long engagement and marriage because the essence of love
goes beyond misunderstanding, hatred, and pride. Love by itself, patches the wounds,
heal the hearts of the broken and accepts failures and imperfection. As stated in the
Bible, “Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers a multitude of sins.”
Negative issues regarding marriage does not hinder the existence of true love
among couples. Marriage takes patience, courage and acceptance for the rest of the lives
of the couple. It is sacred because it not only a union of two individuals but a union of
the couple and God himself.

I think we can preserve our desirable Filipino cultural practices and values
by practicing it regularly in our daily lives. We should be firm in keeping the
tradition we acquired from the past generations and hold them dear to our heart.
We must learn to preserve our identity and refuse being too westernized and
modernized so that we don’t get confused on our own values and culture. Lastly, we
should not look down our roots instead we should be proud of it at all times under
any circumstances.
