"Difference in Love and Marriage"....
A student asks a teacher, "What is
love?"
The teacher said, "in order to answer
your question, go to the wheat field and choose the biggest wheat and
come back.
But the rule is: you can go through
them only once and cannot turn back
to pick."
The student went to the field, go thru first row, he saw one big wheat, but
he wonders... may be there is a
bigger one later.
Then he saw another bigger one... But
may be there is an even bigger one
waiting for him. Later, when he finished more than half
of the wheat field, he start to realize
that the wheat is not as big as the
previous one he saw, he know he has
missed the biggest one, and he
regretted. So, he ended up went back to the
teacher with empty hand.
The teacher told him, "this is love... You
keep looking for a better one, but
when later you realise, you have
already miss the person..." "What is marriage then?" the student
asked.
The teacher said, "in order to answer
your question, go to the corn field and
choose the biggest corn and
come back. But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot
turn back to pick."
The student went to the corn field, this
time he is careful not to repeat the
previous mistake, when he reach
the middle of the field, he has picked one medium corn that he feel satisfy,
and come back to the teacher.
The teacher told him, "This time you
bring back a corn. You look for one
that is just nice, and you have faith
and believe this is the best one you get... This is marriage." 3 Likes |

So you are saying love and marriage are mutual exclusives? |

Mr op... Come and answer me jor. I'm curious to know the idea behind the analogy. |
Re: Difference Btw Love And Marriage by Nobody: 7:33pm On Aug 06, 2016 |
this article is misleading. must I look for the biggest wheat? no no, there are many pretty ladies out there, good nd ready for marriage. I mustn't select the most pretty one among them, for marriage. Ladies and gents, beware of what u read and stick to ur brain, don't b a YES MAN. |

Re: Difference Btw Love And Marriage by Oahray: 7:58pm On Aug 06, 2016 |
olive282:do you understand and agree with the article? I have questions but the op is awol. Care to stand in for him? Question 1 - Since the article implies that love leaves us empty-handed because it makes us choosy (I wonder who told him/her that) but marriage doesn't, does that mean love cannot coexist with marriage? |
Re: Difference Btw Love And Marriage by Nobody: 7:58pm On Aug 06, 2016 |
olive282:then is the writer trying to say that there is no link between love and marriage. this article made it look as if people don't end up with who they love....how can u come back empty handed, although possible but not always. |
Re: Difference Btw Love And Marriage by Gigi4sure: 8:09pm On Aug 06, 2016 |
Love cn lead to marriage if you are SATISFIED WITH D PERSON strong766: |
Re: Difference Btw Love And Marriage by Gigi4sure: 8:12pm On Aug 06, 2016 |
Am nt saying love cnt coexist wit marriage as a matter of fact its one of d pillars of marriage Oahray: |
Re: Difference Btw Love And Marriage by Oahray: 8:15pm On Aug 06, 2016 |
Gigi4sure:lol. The article says love is when you return empty-handed cos you kept being choosy. How can love lead to marriage when there's only one outcome for love? |
Re: Difference Btw Love And Marriage by Oahray: 8:16pm On Aug 06, 2016 |
Gigi4sure:ok, you aren't saying it. The article is. Obviously you just pasted because it sounded nice. |
Re: Difference Btw Love And Marriage by Gigi4sure: 8:17pm On Aug 06, 2016 |
Obviously wen it comes to love we wil want d best person to fall in love with dats wat d boy wanting a bigger wheat represnts Oahray: |
Re: Difference Btw Love And Marriage by Gigi4sure: 8:26pm On Aug 06, 2016 |
D article is saying If u keep falling in love continuously and nt settle down with one or d oda it cannot lead to marriage Oahray: |
Re: Difference Btw Love And Marriage by Gigi4sure: 8:27pm On Aug 06, 2016 |
I ddnt share it bcoz it sounded jst nice Oahray: |
Re: Difference Btw Love And Marriage by Nobody: 8:49pm On Aug 06, 2016 |
Oahray:u are a thinker..kudos for that observation. |
Re: Difference Btw Love And Marriage by Oahray: 9:27pm On Aug 06, 2016 |
Gigi4sure:marriage? That's not what I read sir. There's no marriage in the first instance and no love in the second. The first represents love, and every love. It has only one outcome, one must return empty-handed. It doesn't lead to marriage. Now the second instance represents marriage and the only reference to the first instance is the lesson learnt from it. Take note, love is the first instance. The guy learnt from it and doesn't make the same mistake. This one has a completely different outcome from love. If they have two separate contrasting outcomes, how can they coexist? I still don't get that point in the analogy. |
