A man and his girlfriend were married. It was a large
celebration. All of their friends and family came to see the lovely
ceremony
and to partake of the festivities and celebrations. A wonderful time
was
had by all.
The bride was gorgeous in her white wedding gown and the
groom was very dashing in his black tuxedo. Everyone could tell that
the love they had for each other was true.
A few months later, the wife comes to the husband with a
proposal: "I read in a magazine, a while ago, about how we can
strengthen
our marriage." she offered.
"Each of us will write a list of the things that we find
a bit annoying with the other person. Then, we can talk about how we
can fix them together and make our lives happier together."
The husband agreed. So each of them went to a separate
room in the house and thought of the things that annoyed them about the
other. They thought about this question for the rest of the day and
wrote down what they came up with.The next morning, at the breakfast
table, they decided
that they would go over their lists.
"I'll start," offered the wife. She took out her list.
It had many items on it. Enough to fill 3 pages, in fact. As she
started
reading the list of the little annoyances, she noticed that tears were
starting to appear in her husbands eyes.
"What's wrong?" she asked. "Nothing" the husband
replied, "keep reading your list."
The wife continued to read until she had read all three
pages to her husband. She neatly placed her list on the table and
folded her hands over top of it.
"Now, you read your list and then we'll talk about the
things on both of our lists." She said happily.
Quietly the husband stated, "I don't have anything on my
list. I think that you are perfect the way that you are. I don't want
you to change anything for me. You are lovely and wonderful and I
wouldn't want to try and change anything about you."
The wife, touched by his honesty and the depth of his
love for her and his acceptance of her, turned her head and wept.
IN LIFE, there are enough times when we are disappointed, depressed and
annoyed. We don't really have to go looking for them.
We have a wonderful world that is full of beauty, light and promise.
Why
waste time in this world looking for the bad,disappointing or annoying
things when we can look around us, and see the wondrous things before
us?
I believe that WE ARE HAPPIEST WHEN we see and praise
the good and try our best to forego the mistakes of our spouse Nobody's
perfect but we can find perfection in them to change the way we see
them. Its is necessary to understand the difficulties and be a helping
hand to each other....
THAT BRIGHTENS THE RELATIONSHIP. "
"We forget that forgiveness is greater than revenge.
People make mistakes.
We are allowed to make mistakes.
But the actions we take while in a rage will haunt us forever.
Pause and ponder.
Think before you act.
Be patient.
Forgive & forget. Love one and all.
Have not read of this story...
But read the rationale behind it. Took me some time to understand it, when I started getting religious and a show which shows the disastrous results of it.
Not wu xia pian... normal show...
