IF YOU HAVE A CHOICE, WILL YOU MARRY THE SAME PERSON?

         October 26- 28 was set for our School INSET( In-Service Seminar for Teachers). I discussed about Conditional Type of Sentences. It has a form of : (Conditional or "if" clause;if + present tense)and ( Main Clause or result clause future tense) The following were motivational questions answerable by Yes or No:
        1. If you see a large insect in the house do you scream?
        2. If you have friends over for dinner do you cook most of the food or order from a restaurant?
        3. If you have a lot of work, do you do it right away or leave most of it the next day?
        4. Do you keep a secret if a friend ask you to?
        5. Do you laugh if you make silly mistake?
        That was easy to answer. Then I added:
        If you have a choice, will you marry the same person?
        There was a few seconds of silence. I can see from their eyes that they are groping for answers, assessing themselves emotionally. Then somebody at the back had a boisterous laugh, then everyone follows. 
       Well, we all have the choice. I don't want to judge anyone from among the group because I don't know them personally, unless they are trying to pretend that their marital status is okay.Anyway, its just a question. Its the only way to free ourselves of the present situation. If ever something is wrong or something is missing in our lives after all these years for sure we know how to run over them.
         If I am to answer that question, I would say a big "YES". I asked God to marry a man who knows how to pray, who has faith in God, who prioritize others than himself. A person who will be of influence on me in my spiritual aspect. Richness and good looking face(huh) is not my preference. I cannot live with the face alone.What is important is the person we have chosen can bring out the best in us!! ................that's it and that's life!
