Quotes, yet again.

Here are more quotes that I have found online (suddenly inspired to do this post, by some recent 'alarming' news):

  1. People shop for a bathing suit with more care than they do a husband or wife. The rules are the same. Look for something you'll feel comfortable wearing. Allow for room to grow.
  2. The Japanese have a word for it.It's Judo -- the art of conquering by yielding.The Western equivalent of judo is, 'Yes, dear.'
  3. Marriage has many pains, but celibacy has no pleasures.
  4. Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.
  5. Marriage is not a simple love affair, it's an ordeal, and the ordeal is the sacrifice of ego to a relationship in which two have become one.
  6. A great marriage is not when the 'perfect couple' comes together. It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.
  7. Love is an ideal thing, marriage a real thing; a confusion of the real with the ideal never goes unpunished.
  8. A man in love is incomplete until he has married. Then he's finished.
  9. Love is a fire. But whether it is going to warm your hearth or burn down your house, you can never tell.
  10. A man who marries a woman to educate her falls a victim to the same fallacy as the woman who marries a man to reform him.
  11. It is better for a woman to love a man who loves her more than she loves him.
  12. Know her mind and you can have her body, know her heart and you have her soul.
  13. Mistress: Something between a mister and a mattress.
  14. When a man steals your date, there is no better revenge than to let him keep her.
  15. Men marry women with the hope they will never change. Women marry men with the hope they will change. Invariably they are both disappointed.

In just a short 3-year timespan, I have been to at least 6 wedding dinners, in addition to a few more impending registrations of marriages.

It is always heart-warming and sweet to be able to be part of the wedding crowd, sitting down there listening couples sharing their love experiences and giving thanks for who they have become today.

However, what really makes my heart feel is when I hear of close friends tying the knot (soon/in future). I don't know how to explain it. It is not as if it is for granted that these two person will get married in due time (although for some, that applies) but the type of feeling that runs through your mind and nerves somehow feels tangible, and you feel all excited about it.

Going to get busy with my final year project soon!

I'll see you people when I see you.

Good day people.
