One day, during an evening class for adults,
the psychology Teacher entered the class and told students, “Let’s all play a
game!” “ What Game?”
The Teacher
asked one of the students to volunteer.
A lady,
Aliza came forward.
The Teacher
asked her to write 30 names of most important people in her life on blackboard.
Aliza wrote
names of her family members, relatives, friends, her colleagues and her
neighbors.
The Teacher
told her to erase 3 names that Aliza considered most unimportant.
Aliza erased
names of her colleagues.
The Teacher
again told her to delete 5 more names. Aliza 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 Aliza alone.
Now, The
Teacher told her to delete two more names.
It was a
very difficult choice for Aliza. She unwillingly deleted her parents names.
“Please
delete one more” said the Teacher.
Aliza became
very nervous and with trembling hands and tears in eyes she deleted her son’s
name. Aliza cried painfully...
The Teacher
told Aliza to take her seat. After a
while Teacher asked "why your husband?? The parents 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.
Aliza 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 for her for sharing this truth of life.
This is
true. So always value your life partner, it's not only for husbands but wives
as well.
God has
united these two souls and it's on you now to nurture this relationship above
all.
