we decided to watch "Shall We Dance".
Movies are really not my thing unless I'm placed in circumstances such as the described. But I didn't expect that a certain quote from the movie left such a great impact on me, it kind of gave me a reason as to why people actually get married. The writer wrote it so beautifully and now I guess I will no longer exclaim "I CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY COUPLES BE MARRYING EACH OTHER" and truly not comprehend why people want to be married. I found some sort of reason from this movie, and it makes sense.
"All these promises that we make and we break...why is it that you think people get married? Because we need a witness to our lives. There's a billion people on the planet, I mean what does any one life really mean? But in a marriage, you're promising to care about everything...the good things, the bad things, the terrible things, the mondane things...all of it, all the time, every day. You're saying... your life will not go unnoticed because I will notice it. your life will not go unwitnessed, because I will be your witness."
