DIVORCE IN PH

I grew up in a very conservative environment. I am a product of a Christian school where Sunday studies are regular and went to a college who observes strict Catholicism which instill significant values.  

As a kid, I am just a regular girl who dreamt of walking down the aisle with the man that I love and adore while we have those sparks in our eyes. 

But as I grow older, I realized that love is no fairytale. There are a lot of hiccups and bumps in marriage, but these are amenable and can be tolerated as the couples work on their relationship. However, there are cases where it's not just bumps but rather a cliff that when you draw the line - you can fall in an ocean. Similar to marriage - these are the ones that cannot be tolerated, cannot be worked out and one has to simply save himself/herself by swimming away.

I was never Pro-Divorce until I realized that there are a lot of couples that need to be separated simply because things are not working out. Love has died or they've simply fallen apart. 

We cannot provide freedom to the selected few... Say hmmm... The rich who can afford the long and tedious process of annulment? Everyone should have an equal means to be freed from mistakes of the past so that the future can be faced with a new and better purpose. 

I also agree that the separation of the church and the state must be enforced as stated in the Constitution. We should not be limited by our values as imposed by the Church. No offense to religion or anyone. But let us be open-minded. Hey! It's the 21st century anyways!
