Later this week my cousin who I am very close with is getting married. It just makes me ponder the institution of marriage, and what my inner thoughts are on it. Sometimes I can’t help but think society is growing out of traditional marriage. Signing oneself over to another person legally for the rest of your life is a huge commitment that not many people can afford to take in today’s day and age. What if marriage just had a contract length. Say for 10, 15, or 20 years? Once the marriage is over, the couple can choose to renew, or terminate, with no legal fee’s. Lawyers would surely not be happy about this.
