love

during our wedding ceremony at cyberview lodge on 1st jan 2006, a very good friend of mine read a passage from the bible:

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

it becomes a gentle reminder for me that in every marriage there will be disagreements. and i always try to remind myself not to quarrel but argue. and when we reach a certain point, the argument has to reach a solution and that solution usually requires a compromise from both parties. and in every argument, one of two must always be calm.

and i believe that a sense of humor has to exist in every marriage. it is important to laugh about things... and to keep living interesting.
