Love lessons from Harry and Meghan's royal wedding

Love Therapist

The whole world has spoken about it already but I just couldn’t let it pass by. The truth is that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have really given hope to those that had given up on love and have given love, a good name.

They actually make love look good.

Once a brief case girl, one of the models who hold the suitcase full of cash on the US Version of Deal or No Deal, Meghan Markle’s wedding to Prince Harry is the wedding of the to talk about.

Many times we are disappointed by something small, a guy or girl we had a crush on and we are doomed for life! But let’s look at some lessons from Meghan and Harry one more time and hopefully you will be energised if you are one of those who had given up.

A relationship is between two people

You might have thought you already knew that but if you noticed we all had something about the Prince and his bride. Family, the press, people who don’t matter, each and everyone had an opinion about the relationship before, during the wedding ceremony and now after the wedding, but despite all our thoughts and opinions, the two had decided they wanted to be together for life. So when you are attracted to someone, ignore the noise, follow your heart and make it happen.

There will always be prophets of doom

I mentioned the noise that the couple faced from all corners of the world but even in the family, the Prince’s aunt prophesied that the marriage won’t make it past five years. However before that, there were a lot of nay sayers who thought it was a temporary affair. Meghan’s family did the same, instead of supporting her; they started a smear campaign to bring her down.

Her own brother wrote to the Prince not to marry his “old, divorcee sister…” Do you realize that what Harry and Meghan went through, we go through in our daily relationship challenges where in-laws, neighbours, friends and all those other people who don’t matter keep hoping your marriage or relationship fails? Now learn that such is life, only please your heart.

Your past doesn’t determine your present

The fact that Meghan is a divorcee whose marriage ended after only two years while Harry has never been married was very pronounced throughout the season of the Royal wedding fever, but did it matter? NO! Not even the fact her parents got divorced when she was 6 years old.

When you face disappoints in life, don’t give up, don’t curse God and don’t throw a pity party because God knows why he let it happen. Be positive and celebrate life, He is building your testimony and it’s just a matter of time before your royal feast.

Besides marrying a Prince, she did well for herself as an activist and celebrated actress. The past shouldn’t stop you from realising your full potential.

Age is just a number

We are conditioned to believe that if we are going to make it in love we should do it at a younger age, in fact once you hit your 20s, they start asking if you got any friends to hang out with, why you don’t get any visitors of the opposite sex and its common practice for family and friends to remind you that you are getting too old for marriage once you hit the big 30 in our society.

Now Meghan has made it clear that in the year 2018, telling someone they can’t find the love of their dreams because of a birth date is unacceptable.

This might be a real part of your life if all your friends and younger siblings have gotten married, just given them a deaf ear.

If Meghan had listened to them, at 36 and two years older than Harry, she wouldn’t be a Duchess. You are never too old to get started, when the one shows up, you will prove them all wrong.

Only God controls your destiny

Just like everybody, the press and social media put it, “All the odds were stacked against her but not so. When it’s your time, all things and everything must work in your favour.”

She was bi-racial and it didn’t matter, wasn’t a virgin and didn’t matter, had kissed many frogs in the movies but it didn’t matter. Not even her family background because God had it planned that she would marry a Prince.

Just don’t ever despise yourself because you come from a humble background, nobody knows you, because of your tribe or looks, God has a plan for each of us and He prepared soul mate for us all.
