Mainly in fairy tales do the princess and pauper marriages and friendship relationships end with the saying, “And they all lived happily there after.”
In the real world, however, this is often not the case.
As I write about and teach these tools, I am mindful of the fact that many of these Bible-based principles are ignored, but also realize many marriages and friendship relationships do end happily ever after.
At issue here, however, is that one should consider selecting a marriage partner and establish friendship relationships from similar backgrounds.

In America today, we are not a Cast Society as practiced in some cultures.
