Several years ago when the acclaimed show "Downton Abbey" was airing, I heard a quote that struck a chord with me, especially when thought of in the context of marriage:

There are rules to this way of life, and if you are not prepared to live by them, then it's not the right life for you.

Marriage, much like any lifelong commitment, is governed by unspoken rules and shared understandings. These aren't just the promises made during the wedding ceremony but are the day-to-day practices, compromises, and shared dreams that make up the tapestry of shared life.

It's essential for both partners to recognize these "rules" - mutual respect, undying support, and unwavering love, to name a few. Understanding and living by these principles ensure that the journey of marriage remains fulfilling and harmonious.

Before embarking on this lifelong voyage, introspection is crucial. It's not just about whether you love your partner, but if you're ready to embrace the ethos that marriage demands. Are you prepared to navigate the challenges, weather the storms, and celebrate the joys that come with this commitment?
