Don't Loose the Good In Search Of The Better

in #bigwaves6 years ago

Topic about relationship was raised in a secondary class one day so a student asked the teacher a question why do people marry different persons and not the one they actually fell in love with

The teacher told him in other to answer his question he should go into the wheat farm at the back of the school and choose the best wheat and them come back, he gave him a rule, "you can go through them just once. once you've pass a wheat, you can't come back to take it".

The boy went to the field, went through the first row of wheat and saw a big one which he liked immediately. As he was about plucking it he thought for a moment that there might be bigger and better ones in front so he left it and continued searching. He saw another bigger one, bigger than the first one and the same thought came to his mind again, there would be a bigger one in front.

After going through about half of the wheat farm, he started realizing that the ones he is now seeing are not as big as the once he left behind, he realized he had missed the best one in search of the bigger ones. Since the rule says he can't go back after leaving, he went back to the teacher empty handed. He felt bad for letting the best ones go in search of bigger ones.

The teacher saw him and asked why he didn't come back with any then he explained what happened to the teacher. The teacher understood and told him, you kept on looking for the best wheat but later realized you've missed it but can't go back.

That's the mistake many people do, they fall in love and lost the best person they could have had in their life. After realizing, they can't go back because its too late.

The student raised another question ** Does it mean we should never fall in love?** The teacher told him anyone can fall in love but once you truly fall in love, don't let the search for perfection make you loose that which would have actually been your perfection.

Someone raised another question ** How do you end up marrying someone other than the person you love?**
To answer the question, the teacher sent the student to the xoen filed in the school, asked her to pick the biggest corn and bring it. He also gave the same rule, ** you can't go back once you past any**. Learning from the mistake the boy did, she just went straight and picked the first corn that she felt is the biggest. When he got back to the teacher, he asked why she didn't come back empty handed. She said she just saw it and picked interest in it without second thoughts.

This is how you make good choice for marriage the teacher said. You can never find the perfect one, in search of the perfect one you're loosing the best one.

The students with confused faces. The teacher asked them why they were looking confused. One of them said, "am wondering if we marry the person we love or love the person we marry". Its a very easy answer only if you will be willing to admit it.

Choose wisely so you don't spend the rest of your life wondering and sayingif I had known

Stay true to your self and you'll not make mistake in your choice.
