One day, during an evening class for adults, the psychology
Teacher entered the class and told his students, “Let’s all play a game!”
“What Game?
” The Teacher asked one of the students to volunteer.
A lady, Grace came forward.
The Teacher asked her to write 30 names of most important
people in her life on blackboard. Grace wrote names of her family members,
relatives, friends, her colleagues and her neighbors.
The Teacher told her to erase 3 names that Grace considered
most unimportant. Grace erased names of her colleagues.
The Teacher again told her to delete 5 more names.
Grace erased her neighbor's
names. This went on until there were just four names left on
the blackboard. These were names of her mother, father, husband and the only
son...
The entire class became silent realizing that this wasn’t a
game anymore for Grace alone.
Now, The Teacher told her to delete two more name. It was a
very difficult choice for Grace. She unwillingly deleted her parent names.
“Please delete one
more" said the Teacher. Grace became very nervous and with trembling hands
and tears in eyes she deleted her son’s name. Grace cried painfully... The
Teacher told Grace to take her seat.
After a while Teacher asked "why your husband? The parent
are the ones that nurtured you, and the son is the one you gave birth to?
And you can always find another husband!!!"
Total silence in the class.
Everyone was curious to know her response. Grace calmly and
slowly said, “One day my parents will pass away before me. My son may also
leave me when he grows old, for his studies or business or whatever reason. The
only one, who will truly share his entire life with me, is my Husband”.
All the students stood up and applauded her for sharing this
truth of life.
This is true and a fact of life. God created marriage for
all and it’s a relationship for life.
Always value your life partner, it's not only for husbands
alone but wives as well. God has united these two souls as one and it's on you
to nurture this relationship above all other
relationship you have with friends, loved ones and family.
Before marriage, God first, your family second but when
married, God first and your husband or wife second.
So as a Couple enjoy your marriage and make it healthy,
truthful, peaceful, enjoying, religious,
romantic and enviable!!!
