A student asks a teacher: "What is love?"
The teacher said, "In order to answer your question, go to the paddy
field and choose the biggest paddy 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 through first row, he saw one big
paddy, 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 paddy
field, he start to realize that the paddy 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 missed the person."
The student asked, "What is marriage then?"
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 felt satisfied, and came 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."
how true.
wad abt divorce?
one feels that the corn he's eating has lost all appeal?
Let me ask TS two questions.
1) How are you going to explain to the student who really brough back a paddy to the teacher.
2) How are you going to explain to the student who really brought back the biggest paddy in the field
