Extract frm a fren's blog :-
DID I MARRY THE RIGHT PERSON?
During one of our seminars, a woman asked a common wuestion. She said, "How do I know if I married the right person?" I noteiced that there was a large man sitting next to her, so I said,
"It depends. Is that your husband?" In all seriousness, she answered "How do you know:?"
Let me answer this question because the chances are good that it's weighing on your mind.
Here's the answer.
EVERY relationship has a cycle. In the beginning, you fell in love with your spouse. You anticipated their call, wanted their touch and liked their idiosyncraies. Falling in love with your spouse wasn't hard. In fact, it was a completely natural and spontaneous experience. You didn't have to DO anything.
That's why it's called "fallin" in love. Because it's happening to YOU..
People in love sometimes say, "I was swept off my feet." Think about the imagery of that expression. It implies that you were just standing there; doing nothing, and then something came along and happened to YOU. Falling in love is easy. It's a passive and spontaneous experience.
But after a few years of marriage, the euphoria of love fades.
It's the natural cycle of EVERY relationship. Slowly but surely, phone calls become a bother (if they come at all) and your spouse's idiosyncrasies, instead of being cute, drive you nuts.
The symptoms of this stage vary with every relationship, but if you think about your marriage, you will notice a dramatic difference between the initial stage when you were in love and a much duller or even angry subsequent stage.
At this point, you and/or your spouse might start asking, "Did I marry the right person?: And as you and your spouse reflect on the euphoria of the love you once had, you may begin to desire that experience with someone else. This is when marriages breakdown.
People blame their spouse for their unhappiness and look outside their marriage for fulfillment. Extramarital fulfillment comes in all shapes and sizes. Infidelity is the most obvious. But sometimes people turn to work, a hobby, a friendship, excessive TV or abusive substanecs.
But the answer to this dilemma does NOT lie outside your marriage. It lies within it. I'm not sying that you couldn't fall in love with someone else. You could And TEMPORARILY you'd feel better. But you'd be in the same situation a few years late.
because THE KEY TO SUCCEEDIN IN MARRIAGE IS NOT FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON; IT'S LEARNING TO LOVE THE PERSON YOU FOUND. SUSTAINING love is not a passive or spontaneous experience. It'll NEVER just happen to you. You can't "find" LASTING LOVE.
You have to "make" it happen. That's why we have the expression "the labor of love", because it take time, effort and energy. And most importantly, it takes WISOM.
You have to know what to do to make your marriage work. make no mistake about it. Love is NOT a mystery. There are specific things you can do (with or without your spouse) to succeeed with your marriage.
Just as there are physical laws of the universe (suc as gravity), there are also laws for relationships. Just as the right diet and exercise program makes you physically stronger, certain habits in your relationship WILL make you marriage stronger. It's a direct cause and effect. If you kow and apply the laws, the results are predictable... you can "make" love.
Love in marriage is indeed a "decision"..
Not just a feeling..

Had iftar with the qualified 600pv IBOs @ BREEKS
It's totally on the house by new FPDD, Eddie & Lindah.
We had a great time, especially since it has been a long time since we had a meal together and had fun.
Eddie shared with us his experiences while working at Night Safari when New Sapphire Direct Azman mentioned about the death of Steve Irwin.
It was relly unfortunate that the most expensice meal was unavailable.
I was relly craving for steak, medium done and Breeks have only one Steak dish (Sirloin with mushroom sauce) and it's unavailable...
Peh bingit.. Sebbaik takde ar...kalau ada, kayap ar korang, cos six of us wanted those juicy sirloin steaks..
But then again, what is a few bucks, considered to xxxxxxxxx thousand dollars you guys juz got, frm the biz, rite..??
Neway, thank you soo, soo much..
Semoga lebih murah lagi rezeki kamu berdua and jgn lupa belanja kami lagi, ye..
This time, juz the four of us...at, let say, Straits Kitchen?? *wink wink, hint hink*
Was extremely proud that Hafiz qualify this time round..
Mebbe the carrot works for him, this time round..
Next time (which is next month), make sure you qualify again, aite?
When you CHOOSE to DECIDE to do it, YOU CAN DO IT!!
k, my eyes are half opened, while waiting for DH to return from meeting his CCK buddy.. *dorang nih, kalau dah jumpa, tak ingat balik*
