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, g0
through 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 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.”
