In sickness and in health?

September 6, 2009

Is it a coincidence that wedding vows rhymes with wedding woes? Or is it some kind of advance warning system? People often go through the motions of a wedding according to their customs and it is a well known fact that a lot of people make up their own vows, adding a touch of personal touch to the process. Do wedding vows also have fine print? When one says ‘.. in sickness and health…’ is it to be taken at face value? Or is just an exercise? Questions, the answers to which my unmarried friends would be looking too.  Hopefully, my married friends would be able to shed more light on the matter, but then again, are these questions far too relative to have empirical answers?
