Does Marriage Protect You Against Sickness?

JOHANNESBURG - Feb. 28, 2024 - PRLog -- We had the privilege of engaging with the masses on the widely debated subject of marriage and protection. Does Marriage Guarantee Protection from Sickness? Exploring the Moral and Practical Sides

Marriage, a topic of endless debate, sparked a discussion recently on its connection to personal well-being. The question at hand: does marriage inherently protect individuals from sickness? We delved into this question from two perspectives: moral and practical.

"Morally, marriage is often viewed as a sacred union, not just for the couple but also for their families. It's seen as a commitment to love, cherish, and protect each other, creating a safe haven where individual needs go hand-in-hand. This foundation of love and support could be argued to contribute to a sense of security and wellbeing, potentially impacting health positively." Said Bishop Godfrey Ndamane during an interview with Alex FM. Marriage, a topic of endless debate, sparked a discussion recently on its connection to personal well-being. The question at hand: does marriage inherently protect individuals from sickness? We delved into this question from two perspectives: moral and practical. However, the practical side paints a different picture. Marriage isn't always a fairytale. Definitions and experiences vary widely. For some, the vow of "in sickness and in health" becomes a hollow promise, with marriages lacking shared values and genuine commitment. This lack of connection can lead to unhealthy behaviors, potentially impacting both partners negatively. The conclusion was that guaranteeing someone's protection from sickness solely through marriage is a complex issue. While a loving and supportive marriage can be undeniably beneficial for overall well-being, it's crucial to acknowledge the complexities and variations in marital experiences. Until the "right" way of practicing marriage, characterized by genuine commitment and shared values, becomes the norm, relying solely on marriage status as a shield against illness proves unreliable.
