Synergy

In class I found the idea of the social contract theory vs. transcendence a very interesting subject. The example used in class about reasons for marrying another person is something I have thought of before. The way Dr. Layne presented that argument gave me another a different perspective on something i had already put much thought to. I believe that different people have different reasons for entering into a marital contract, but I mush take an optimistic view on this and say that I think it, for the most part, is because two people sharing a deep trust with one another. It is because of synergy found with that person that makes you more than just yourself.
