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 maybe 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 realize, 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.”
