Dangerously United ...

Sept 28
A couple I know is going to get married next Saturday. They are not close friends of mine, but their immediate neighbour is, who had revealed to me before that this couple spend most of their days quarreling or fighting. I had also observed that their background, education, views or opinions on whatever, are as different as their characters. So, when they told me the good news, he excitedly, she silent, but with sparkles in her eyes and smiling. My mind at first went 'Oh oh ...' even when I was congratulating them.
'Yeah', he continued: 'a wedlock, dangerously united!'
Now that is enlightening, that they are fully aware of what they are getting into, but happy and ready to tie the knot knowing what they each must learn - patience, respect, tolerance, adapting; and the most important part, loving under whatever pressure or circumstances. Much safer ground for a life-long union that those who rush into marriage based on mutual attraction and passion.
Love can always conquer differences and obstacles. I congratulated them once again after we parted, quietly to myself this time.
