today i observed a few acts of love between a husband and a wife.
it just so happened that the table i was sitting at had two married couples, so the natural thing to do was to observe.
i know both couples quite well.
generally, you'd grow to know the people in the school better when you've worked with them before.. and for these four, i have had the opportunity/am having the opportunity to work with each of them on an individual basis.
and i just can't help but observe this husband who's caring towards his wife.
and they've been married for some time.
he will help to adjust the back of her top when it's not comfortable for her.. he'd kiap food for her and arrange it on a plate to form a picture (so sweet!) hahahaa. he'd ask after her through the dinner.
learned today that they didn't have the money to have a wedding dinner, so they only had a church wedding.
but given the choice between having a grand wedding dinner, and having a loving husband, i'd rather choose the latter.
have been hearing news of engagements broken up (just heard another one on Thursday) and of people getting engaged/married (news of 2 engagements within 2 days, and one red bomb on the second day).
whatever happened to commitment between these 2 people who have decided to walk together for the rest of their lives? whatever happened to honesty? or to working out problems?
it's kinda disheartening to hear of people being together for 7 years, be engaged, and then broken up. lol.
why am i sharing this? haha.
no idea.
oh ya.
i guess observing this couple today made me glad that there're still couples who're like this :)
