The other day someone said to me “oh man there is nothing like getting married, your life won’t be complete until your married.” Could it be that before getting married the person felt totally happy and content with their life but after meeting a specific person they then became discontent until they married that person. That is retro-active truth. It is a truth that becomes true retro-actively. That is, if someone would have walked up to him before he met that special someone and said “dude your life is not complete because your not married” that he could have responded and said your wrong I totally love my life.  And then all the sudden he met that special someone felt discontent about his life due to not having her in it.  Before meeting that person he looked back at his life rather gleafully, but after meeting that person he then knew that his life would be a waste if he did not hook it up.  Ahh, it is a tough phenomenon.   So when that person says to you “There is nothing like marriage and you got to get married to really enjoy life.” Perhaps you can say back to them, well what you are saying is true and false.

I haven’t really gotten to study retro-active truth but I did want to have a blog title named retro-active truth and so I was able to accomplish that with this post.
