A girl in love asked her boyfriend..
Girl(g): Tell me... who do you love most in this world?
Boy (b): You, of course!
(g): In your heart, what am I to you?
(b): The boy thought for a moment and looked intently in her
eyes and said, "You are my rib. In the Bible, it was said
that God saw that Adam was lonely, during his sleep; God
took one of Adam's rib and created Eve. Every man has been
searching for his missing rib, only when you find the woman
of your life; you'll no longer feel the lingering ache in
your heart."
After their wedding, the couple had a sweet and happy life for a
while. However, the youthful couple began to drift apart due to
the busy schedule of life and the never-ending worries of daily
problems....their life became mundane....
All the challenges posed by the harsh realities of life began to
grow away their dreams and love for each other... The couple
began to have more quarrels and each quarrel became more heated..
One day, after the quarrel, the girl ran out of the house.... At
the opposite side of the road, she shouted, "You don't love me!"
The boy hated her childishness and out of impulse, retorted,
Maybe, it was a mistake for us to be together! You were never my
missing rib!" Suddenly, she turned quiet and stood there for a
long while.... He regretted what he said but words spoken are
like thrown away water, you can never take it back. With tears,
she went home to pack her things and was determined in
breaking-up.
Before she left the house, "If I'm really not your missing rib,
please let me go..... She continued, "It is less painful this
way... let us go on our separate ways and search for our own
partners..."
Five years went by.... He never remarried but he had tried to
find out about her life indirectly...... She had left the country
and back.... She had married a foreigner and divorced..... He
felt anguished that she never waited for him.
In the dark and lonely night, he lit his cigarette and felt the
lingering ache in his heart. He couldn't bring himself to admit
that he was missing her..
One day, they finally met.... At the airport, a place where there
were many reunions and good-byes.... He was going away on a
business trip. She was standing there alone, with just the
security door separating them. She smiled at him gently.
(b): How are you?
(g): I'm fine. How about you... Have you found your missing rib?
(b): No.
(g): I'll be flying to New York in the next flight.
(b): I'll be back in 2 weeks time. Give me a call when you are
back...You know my number... Nothing has changed.
With a smile, she turned around and waved good-bye..
Good-bye.....
One week later, he heard of her death. She had perished in New
York. In the event that shocked the world..
Midnight..... Once again, he lit his cigarette..... And like
Before, he felt the lingering ache in his heart.... He finally
knew, she was the missing rib that he had carelessly broken....
Sometimes, people say things out of moments of fury..... Most
often than not, the outcome could be disastrous and detrimental..
We vent our frustrations 99% at our loved ones.... And even
though we know that we ought to "think twice and act wisely",
it's often easier said than done.
Things happen each day, many of which are beyond our control....
Let us treasure every moment and everyone in our lives....
Tomorrow may never come; give and accept what you have today.
"The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears,
the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The
beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes,because that is the
doorway to her heart - the place where love resides."
