A student asks a teacher, "Why do people often marry a different person they fell in love with?" The teacher said, “To answer your question, go to the wheat field and choose the best wheat and come back. But the rule is that you can go through them only once and you can't pick it up again ”. The student went to the field, passed the front row, saw a large wheat that he liked instantly, but wonders that maybe there is a bigger one even more. Then he saw a bigger one, but again he thought that maybe there is an even bigger one waiting for him.
Later, when he finished more than half the wheat field, he began to realize that the wheat is not as big as the ones he released, he began to realize that he had lost the best in search of a bigger one. So, he ended up going back to the teacher empty-handed because he just couldn't forgive himself for letting go of the best wheat and described what happened. The teacher said, “You kept looking for a better one while you let go of the best one, and then when you realize you missed it, you can't go back. This is the mistake often made by people who fell in love and lost the best person they could have in their life. "
So the student said, "Does that mean one should never fall in love?" The teacher replied, “No, dear, anyone can fall in love if they find a suitable person. But, once you really fall in love, you should never let go of that person because of your anger, ego, or comparisons to others. "
“How do they end up marrying someone other than who they loved?” The student asked. The teacher said: “To answer your question, go to the cornfield and choose the largest corn and come back. But the rule is the same as before, you can go through them only once and you can't pick up again ”. The student went to the cornfield, this time he was careful not to repeat the previous mistake. When he reached the center of the field, he took a medium corn with which he was satisfied and returned to the teacher. He described how he made a decision. The teacher said, “This time you didn't come empty-handed. You looked for one that is nice, and you were confident that this is the best you can get. This is how one chooses marriage. "
The student was confused. The teacher asked, "What is bothering you now?" The student responded: "I wonder which would have been better to marry a person you love or to love the person you marry." The teacher replied: "It is a very easy answer, only if you are willing to admit it."
Moral: life is like a fruit basket. Either you have to choose to eat the fruit you love or be content with something that is healthy! Choose more wisely, you may have to spend your life wondering, what if… As long as you stay true to yourself and honest, you can't go wrong with either option.
