From Vietnam with Love

(A')

A group of graduates, well established in their careers, were talking at a reunion and decided to go visit their old university professor, now retired. During their visit, the conversation turned to complaints about stress in their work and lives. Offering his guests hot chocolate, the professor went into the kitchen and returned with a large pot of hot chocolate and an assortment of cups - porcelain, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite - telling them to help themselves to the hot chocolate. When they all had a cup of hot chocolate in hand, the professor said: 'Notice that all the nice looking and expensive cups were taken, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.

The cup that you're drinking from adds nothing to the quality of the hot chocolate. In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted was hot chocolate, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups. And then you began eyeing each other's cups.

Now consider this: Life is the hot chocolate, your job, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life. The cup you have does not define, nor change the quality of life you have. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the hot chocolate God has provided us. God makes the hot chocolate, man chooses the cups.

The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything that they have. Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. And enjoy your hot chocolate!!

10 Rules to make your love last forever.

1. We will not simultaneously get angry. Be cool as water whenever another one being fire.

2. We will not shout into each others faces beside our house is accidentally on fire.

3. Noone loves to be criticized. When talking of what you dislike or need his/ her improvement, use soft & sweet words.

4. We will not revive any bad old practices, but only our romances.

5. Make him/ her know how much s/he means to you.

6. Promise me that we will not peevish over-night. Talk face to face not back-chat.

7. Tell him or her more about anything in your life to tie you up together.

8. Don't be shy to show him/her your apology. When you have something mistaken

9. Don't misunderstand that being together always is to show your heedfulness.

10. Lastly, realize him/ her that your love still exists and will be eternally last.

Love is...

not how much you can get,

But how much you can give,

it's not about giving up,

but holding on,

not about how you say, "I love you",

but how you show it's true.

Where and what and how I have been doing... to answer all these question... just take a look at the picture below.

I think I am a SUPER- HOUSEWIFE after all  !!! 

@ the 10th Floor, I saw a lovely couple whom people are always jealous of their love, were having a big fight.

@ the 9th floor, I saw Mr. Peter who is always energetic was crying with himself.

@ the 8th floor, I saw Mrs. Kitty was shocking from seeing her husband & her best friend together on her bed.

@ the 7th floor, I saw Mrs. Nancy was taking lunatic pills.

@ the 6th floor, I saw Mr. Chris, who was jobless, now looking for a job from 7 kinds of newspaper a day.

@ the 5th floor, I saw Mr. Robert, a respectable teacher, was wearing his wife's underwear.

@ the 4th floor, I saw a young lady, Rose, was having a brawl and ending up with her new boyfriend (again).

@ the 3rd floor, I saw uncle Sam who has been waiting for a visit from his children. 

@ the 2nd floor, I saw Lilly was looking at her husband's picture. He ran away after 6 months of the marriage.

 Before I jump, I thought I was the one who had the worst problem in life.

 Now I have realized that each one of us sometime has something which we cannot or don't want to tell to any one.

 After all these I have seen, I feel like what I have been through is not the end of the world.

 All the people I have seen in the last minute, now they are looking at me ...
