"Bag 'em, Tag 'em, & Drag 'em to the Altar"

I saw this tagline on a newsletter I enjoy. The post was about spells and curses. This one stuck out because I know many women who are so anxious to get married that they will resort to casting spells or having someone cast a spell on their targeted beloved to get him to the altar. “He” just doesn’t realize yet what a catch he has in you, so a little spell to help him “see” the light won’t hurt anything.

Now, I’m not bagging on anyone who has tried the spell tactic or even thought of it. I sure have read up on some those “Love spells” myself. If anything, it’s interesting. But, if you put the glass sipper on the other foot, how would you feel if you found out that you ended up marrying some guy because he put a spell on you. I would gather that it would piss you off. Love and marriage is something that should happen in its natural course. And, nothing that is created through coersion, trickery, or  deception will end happily ever after. As an example, ask any woman who trapped a man by getting pregnant.

As you get older, and love hasn’t found its way to you yet, the desperation and anguish get more consuming. I know all about this. You start becoming more open to things like spell casting because you want so badly to have a special someone. Everyone you know is getting married, and there are people you know who are even on their 2^nd or 3^rd marriage, and you haven’t had your first. Damn frustrating! But in the end, the real challenge is having faith that your true beloved does exist and that you two will find each other, and you will not have to resort to trapping, bagging, or dragging the man to the altar. It may take longer than you had planned or wanted, but trust me; it will be worth the wait.
