"Forever hold your piece"

Ever wonder why no one ever says anything, you know there has to be people that are saying to themselves, "if they only knew what they were doing". But 50% of the time you were wrong by keeping your mouth shut, so in my case 100%. I am not sure if anyone at my last wedding thought that my marriage to Astrid would come to an end and it would have been difficult for anyone to say "NO! Ralph, in 3 years you will be divorced!" I was happy with the most amazing women in my eyes (heck I was happy just 6 months ago) and how could anyone at my wedding say, I OBJECT! But gosh would it have hurt as much then as it does now. It would have been embarrassing for someone to say something and the odds should have been in my favor that this would have lasted forever. What ever happened to all of those words being said in front of God and family members, what happened to commitment, what happened to until death do us part? I guess it died with 50% of the marriages in this country. Anyway, next time your at a wedding and that question comes up "Please speak now or forever hold your piece" think about that fact that what you don't say might have the everlasting effect not the marriage.
