Marriage, love and money

834 views. 2011-5-2 21:29 |

Some of my high school classmates have married in the last couple of years, and many are just going to.

Coincidently we will have several class-couples (the spouses and me  are classmates). We are at the age of marriage, and fortunately we have found our true love. So It's the right time to get married.I am happy to attend their weddings, and i'm looking forward to my best friends' big day at the same time. Some of them are engaged pairs , some are even single.

Today, it seems much more difficult for the young lovers stepping into marriage. For the marriage is not just a  promise, a certificate, but also the result of conditions  assessment in current China. If a man wants to marry a woman, a flat or apartment under his name is a must. It means No house, no marriage.

However, the price of the housing is soaring nowadays that few young people can afford it by their own salary. Lots of them have to seek help from their parents or relatives. So the problem comes to the parents. If a young man is lucky enough to have parents in good economic conditions, he will almost get everything he wants with no effort. In contrast, if his parents are not rich enough, he will have to work for mortage for many years. It seems unfair to the young as the situation is totally different from 10 years ago. At that time, the house price was reasonable, and it was easy to get a handsome salary job for a fresh graduate. The dream was reachable. Today instead of struggling in the corps, people prefer to stay inside the System, which provides comfortable working environment, rich resouce and high subsidy income, even gray income. In China, the annual Civil Service Examination is overcrowded in recent years. It carries millions of people's dreams. Generally speaking,  the civil servicers get much more income and privilege. Working for the powerful government sounds more reliable and respectable to the public.

------------------------------------------------

At  the age of money and power, the sociaty Gives less security. That stimulates the material desire and privilege desire.We have no belief, and  our world is full of confused culture identity, corruption, bribe, Indifference and deception. The Rich enjoy more respectation. People are forced to work for money. And What we can only trust is  money.

It's the reality that we cannot change but accept.Every coin has two sides.We not only have to face the shortcomings in our society,but also are confident in our social progress.

Thus, a majority of men who need to account on themselves are under great stress...
I hope your big day will be on the way sooner or later.

i love a girl but i didn't told her about that, maybe she doesn't like me. but the main reason why i didn't told her is that i don't rich enough. even i don't have enough knowledge or professtional skills to ensure that if we have a good future together.
