WOE TO A MAN IN A SOCIETY THAT IMPLEMENTS SHOULD BE MONOGAMY

His wife, an only wife that he have, is now asking him for the cellphone which he took from her. Have you returned it to my friend she inquired.

The cellphone? Ah yes, he took the cellphone away from her when he caught her texting another man. And he had seen in the inbox the sexual tones of the exchange of messages between his only wife and the man. He had violently took it from her when he caught her hiding it from him. Curious, he later found out about the blooming affair his wife was about to indulge in. Or were they now having an affair.

He then tried to look for any woman to comfort her for the unfaithfulness of his wife….but there was none. He attempted to befriend women in their town, but the formal ones were suspicious of him. He being a man who by the age and his face, any woman can tell that he was married. A man was only allowed one wife in their society.And formal girls have a harsh word for his kind. In his many attempt for comfort from the hurt and the pain that his wife had inflected on him, he finally found someone. But all she did was to take his money from him,she gave in to his sexual desire; but her lifestyle was quite immoral in his own assessment. She had many boyfriends and now he was one of them. As he felt his eyes blurring and wet from the tears that flowed down, he prayed to His God to help him. From the distance he heard the voice of Paul Simon singing:

“Lie a lie, lie la lie la lie, lie a lie…i am just a poor boy…though my story seldom told…i have squandered my resistance for a pocket ful of mumbles such are promises…all lies and jest still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregard the rest…..asking only workman’s wages…but i got no offer…only a comeon from the whores of 7th avenue…i do declare there were times i was so lonesome…i toook some comfort there….lie la lie……”

And as he felt pity for himself and his children…he wondered why God have given him a woman as unfaithful as her. But was it God’s fault or was it his own. But he had chosen her from among several women in the past. He had made sure of her family background and all the important things needed when he took this wife…but now this! He remembered how he and his wife attended church…with their children…but now what is this she is doing? Will he leave her for her unfaithfulness? But he pitied his children…so he grit his teeth…prayed to God to help him overcome this trial…and lead him toward the light and the truth! He had determined in his heart he will suffer thus far…his love for his family unending…forgiving…but he was now searching for answers!
