yea...will be looking forward to everyone's stories and urs
too...Foga..haha.. 
anyway...i got a story here...not mine..but got it from a
friend...sorry abit lengthy...heez
My husband is an Engineer by
profession, I love him for his steady nature, and I love the warm
feeling when I lean against his broad shoulders.
Three years of courtship and now, two years into marriage, I would
have to admit, that I am getting tired of it. The reasons of me
loving him before, has now transformed into the cause of all my
restlessness. I am a sentimental woman and extremely sensitive when
it comes to a relationship and my feelings, I yearn for the
romantic moments, like a little girl yearning for candy. My husband
is my complete opposite, his lack of sensitivity, and the inability
of bringing romantic moments into our marriage has disheartened me
about love.
One day, I finally decided to tell him my decision, that I wanted a
divorce.
"Why?" he asked, shocked. "I am tired; there are no reasons for
everything in the world!" I answered.
He kept silent the whole night, seems to be in deep thought with a
lighted cigarette at all times.
My feeling of disappointment only increased, here was a man who
can't even express his predicament, what else can I hope from
him?
And finally he asked me: What can I do to change your mind?"
Somebody said it right, it's hard to change a person's personality,
and I guess, I have started losing faith in him.
Looking deep into his eyes I slowly answered: "Here is the
question,
if you can answer and convince my heart, I will change my mind,
Let's say, I want a flower located on the face of a mountain cliff,
and we both are sure that picking the flower will cause your death,
will you do it for me?"
He said:" I will give you your answer tomorrow...." My hopes just
sank by listening to his response.
I woke up the next morning to find him gone, and saw a piece of
paper with his scratchy handwriting, underneath a milk glass, on
the dining table near the front door, that goes....
My dear, "I would not pick that flower for you, but please allow me
to explain the reasons further...
This first line was already breaking my heart. I continued
reading.
"When you use the computer you always mess up the Software
programs, and you cry in front of the screen, I have to save my
fingers so that I can help to restore the programs.
You always leave the house keys behind, thus I have to save my legs
to rush home to open the door for you.
You love travelling but always lose your way in a new city; I have
to save my eyes to show you the way.
You always have the cramps whenever your "good friend" approaches
every month; I have to save my palms so that I can calm the cramps
in your tummy.
You like to stay indoors, and I worry that you will be infected by
infantile autism.
I have to save my mouth to tell you jokes and stories to cure your
boredom.
You always stare at the computer, and that will do nothing good
for
your eyes, I have to save my eyes so that when we grow old, I can
helpto clip your nails, and help to remove those annoying white
hairs. So I can also hold your hand while strolling down the beach,
as you enjoy the sunshine and the beautiful sand... and tell you
the colour of flowers, just like the colour of the glow on your
young face...
Thus, my dear, unless I am sure that there is someone who loves you
more than I do... I could not pick that flower yet, and die...
"
My tears fell on the letter, and blurred the ink of his
handwriting...
and as I continue on reading...
"Now, that you have finished reading my answer, if you are
satisfied, please open the front door for I am standing outside
bringing your favourite bread and fresh milk...
I rush to pull open the door, and saw his anxious face,
clutching
tightly with his hands, the milk bottle and loaf of bread....
Now I am very sure that no one will ever love me as much as he
does, and I have decided to leave the flower alone...
That's life, and love. When one is surrounded by love, the feeling
of
excitement fades away, and one tends to ignore the true love that
lies in between the peace and dullness.
Love shows up in all forms, even very small and cheeky forms, it
has never been a model, it could be the dullest and boring
form....
flowers, and romantic moments are only used and appear on the
surface of the relationship.
Under all this, the pillar of true love stands... and that's
our
life...
Love, not words win arguments...
