IT IS NOT OK

How come every week, there seems to be an article that never fails to shock me. Today, if you have read the New Paper headlines, you will come across an article about a girl called Clara. The article was about AIDS and how the youngster is getting it nowadays. No I am not going to talk about AIDS but rather what she says about pre martial sex. Let me quote her exactly from the newspaper. The paper asks whether she regrets sleeping with her ex-boyfriend. And this was her reply “I am not sorry. I don’t think a woman need s to be sorry for being with a man she loves” Let me rephrase it in simple words. What she is saying is that, “No I am not sorry for having sex with my boyfriend. It is OK as long as we love one another; there is nothing to be sorry about having sex with my boy friend”

It shocked me to read this. She is not sorry for having premarital sex and claims that as long as they love one another, it is OK. But what happen to this love? 2 years later they went their separate ways. Is this so called “LOVE”? They claim they love one another so they can sleep with each other, but what happen after 2 years? Where is this so called love? Do it means that every opposite sex that you meet and you have feelings for the other party, so it must be love, then it equates that you can sleep with each other?

Come on, have a little more conscience! To all my young readers. THIS IS YOUR LIFE!!! Do not go about throwing yourself at the other party, every time you start “falling in love”. Do give yourself some respect. Don’t bluff yourself by saying it is OK. IT IS NOT OK!!!. Every human being must preserve some dignity. My young readers, all of you belong to the next generation. If this is the moral value that you hold? Can you imagine, how much worst will it be for the generation after yours, if theirs is much lesser than yours? I would like all of you to spend some time thinking over what I wrote today and try to understand my fears for your future. I pray that the future will not be as bleak as I fear.
