One faithful night I said to my lovely wife: Sweetie I really miss my family you know it's been long we had a get-together, I will love it if you will prepare lunch tomorrow, so I can invite them, it's been a while.
Then said my wife with a sigh: God willing, it will be good.
Very early the next morning, I sent message across before I went out for work and at noon, I came home, and said to my wife: Did you prepared lunch? They will come in an hour or two from now and my wife said: No, I did not cook, because your family are not strangers, they can eat what is in the house.
I said: God forgive you! Why didn't you tell me yesterday that you won't cook and they will soon be arriving, what will I do now?
And she said: Call them and apologize to them, after all, they are not strangers.
I have to left the house upset and after a few minutes, there was a knock on the door. My wife got up, opened the door and was surprised to see her family, brothers, sisters and children!
Her father asked her, "Where is your husband?"
She said to him: He left a while ago.
Her father said, "this morning, your husband invited us for lunch. Is it possible for him to invite us and leave the house?"
My wife was stunned by the news, and began rubbing her hands, puzzled that the food in the house was not befitting for her family. She called me and said to me: Why didn't you tell me that you intended to invite my family for lunch?
I said to her: My family is your family, and yours is mine. There's no difference.
She said to me: Please bring ready-made food with you when coming, there is no food at home.
And I replied: I am very far from home and your family are not strangers, feed them from the food in the house as you wanted to feed my family members.
I switched off my phone for the moment to stop her from reaching me for an hour.
Moral Lessons from my little story
Always remember to do unto others what you want them to do to you. This is the greatest humanitarian aid human
Remember you have exchanged families immediately you get married and treat both the same.
Support your partner's well-being and happiness it will definitely return back to you.
Don't treat your partner's family like they are nothing to you.
Love and treat others as much as you love yourself.
What happened to others should be a very Big moral lesson for you.
