I read a story about couples who were staying in a particular compound and they had a neighbor. I will tag the first couples , couple A and tag their neighbours couple B. Couple A were living happily and their marriage was going fine untill the day the wife of couple started complaining that the husband should always open the door of their car for her when ever they want to go out ,the same way Husband B use to open for his wife. Husband A who was not use to all those Nollywood kind of lifestyle and was unable to do it consistently and that became a very serious problem between couple A.
It got to the extent that they openly quarreled one day outside and couple B approached them to ask what they problem was. After they narrated the story to couple B, couple B and the wife started laughing very seriously. Couple A and the wife were shock, and they ask couple B why they were laughing instead of helping them address the issues. Couple B responded after a session of long laughter " the door to my car has spoilt and i am the only person that can manage to open it, that's why you will always see me open it for my wife when ever we want to go out, it's not any form of love " he concluded the response with another session of laughter 🤣🤣
At that point wife B regretted why she needed to cause problem with her husband and always comparing him to husband B.
Truly comparing ourselves to others have a way of stealing our joy and will make us forget to appreciate ourselves and the little effort of people towards us.
Every one you see outside there, have a story to tell.
