Once there was a young man who was so eager to know about marriage in other cultures around the world. So one day, he asks his father. “Dad, is it true that in Indian or in Arabian culture, the husband doesn’t know to whom he is marrying until after several days of their marriage?†The father smiled and said,†Son, actually it did happen everywhere all the time.â€
The moral lesson of this story is that during our engagement period, we are so in love and too blind to see the flaws and imperfection of the one we fall in love with. Just like what it implies in the next situation.
After a lengthy quarrel, a wife said to her husband, "You know, I was a fool when I married you." The husband replied: "Yes, dear, but I was in love and didn't notice it."
Truly marriage is a very powerful institution that only God can revoke its purpose. In order to make a marriage work happily ever after, it would be a perfect combination for a blind wife and a deaf husband. For a blind wife will not see the mistakes of her husband and a deaf husband will not hear the naggings of his wife.
