I just want to vent with military spouses, single mothers and fathers, and those who are considering getting married to someone in the military. I have with no consideration experienced the hardships of having to raise a child alone without the help of my friends, my family, or my spouse. My story isn’t a unique story, but it’s my story, and my story starts with my wife having to leave my two-year-old daughter and me for one year to deploy downrange in Afghanistan. It was an eye-opening experience that forced me to relate to all the military spouses that are left behind having to take on all of the domestic issues at home while their loved one is away defending the freedom of America. Having served twenty years of honorable service in the U.S. Navy, I can truly say that this is the very first time I truly understood the hardships of a military spouse. It’s not just military spouses I relate to but parents in general who are the sole caretaker of their children and household. Follow me as I vent about the daunting experiences I endured as a single househusband stuck in my ways with limited or no patience for this trivial life of marriage, military, and mayhem.

“Celebrating Marriage Through the Law” is a follow-up to the author’s first book, “The Legacy”. It uses case studies to examine and highlight women's experiences in marriage with the aim of portraying that women can find solutions to their marital problems by using the law. It emphasizes that women hold the key that can make the difference in their own lives and in the lives of others. Women, especially African women are very reluctant to use the legal avenues available to them, either due to their ignorance of the law or their reluctance to disturb the status quo of “ women are to be seen and not heard”. Thus a lot of women end up simply living with their problem that usually has a very simple solution. The Law is able to change the attitudes and perspectives of society to make life more just and meaningful. We need the Law to remind us of what is right in the world and we need the Law more to ensure that women are given the support that they need to make changes in their lives.
