Other Side of Adultery

     Adultery, one of the things God told us not to do as listed in the Ten Commandments. But do you ever wonder why? We all know things happen for a reason. And Adultery affects the families involved badly. Do the reasons include hurting them? Affecting their emotional states and let the children suffer and ruin their life's perspectives? Why do people indulge adultery in spite of knowing the consequences? Why do married men hurt their wives? Why do the mistresses agreed to be a third party?

     Some says that because of sexual needs. Mistresses are said to be better partners at bed, unlike the wives wherein motherhood had develop their attitudes well. But some have these types of relationships because of challenge, a bet or a sort of revenge. Especially those women/men who are drown into a very liberated life that they tend to give more importance to fun than dignity. Also, I heard some that having relationships However, such reason happens quite seldom. Moreover, people talks about it were because of love. They say love makes them do it against all odds, against God, Himself. Forbidden Love as they would quote it. Well for me, I really think this is because of money. Biting the bullet. If you dream of something and you are very determined to achieve that dream won't you risk everything? Sacrifice is a part of discipline where it is the vital ingredient for success.

     Each of the individuals who are accounted to such activity has their own particular reasons. Furthermore, no matter how they had affected certain families doesn't mean we have the rights to criticize and judge them to our heart's desire. God had allowed such things to happen so all there’s left is to bear, do what is right and have faith. If they had the choice would you think you can see them having the relationship? You might say “I’ll find a better way.” “I’ll never be into that kind of mortifying act.” Or “I’ll do my best to avoid this.” But you would never know until you are really there right?

     I am not giving the suspects of adultery the favor but rather I want to give you a view of what and how they feel. Never judge because you have just looked at the other side and haven’t seen the other. Maybe some of their reasons are cheap, they can’t control their emotions and it is their weakness but do not react. The least you could do is be thankful for you haven’t blessed with a mind who thinks like them.

     Life is short to spend it on judging others. Many unwanted examples are shown publicly but instead of giving out comments, try to learn from it and help them fix their way to righteousness. Be the reason for their change, not for their breakdown. Give them chance to prove themselves because we all know we have its own ups and downs. Reflect on their behaviors and be the person who won’t degrade their selves for the matter.
