Common Unity in Marriage

One of my a-ha moment. However gloomy the sky is, not long after your plane takes off and dives through the sky, you will be greeted with beaming sun that provides light and warmth. The promise is always there. It transmutes my non-peace and anxiety into peace and stillness. The opportunity that is concealed within every crisis will then manifest.¹

The saying that two are better than one is indeed true. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow. If you want to go fast, you go alone. But if you want to go further, you go together. Iron sharpens iron.

One of my colleague shared to me a few weeks ago, “…whatever you do in your work, remember your family. When the work is done, in other words when your purpose doesn’t fit the entity’s vision anymore, at the end you will return to your family, your last resort.” Translation, you reap what you sow. The entity can be yours or owned by others. How many purposes can one person have in their whole life? Many. How many intersections can they have? Many. If they already achieved their purpose in their mid-age, does that mean he doesn’t have purpose for the rest of his life? He will acquire new purpose with new vision.

Grateful to have Margareta who has always been our sun. However tough the work is, however mundane the routine is, however bad the traffic is, when you arrive to your house, you know she will provide the home.

I pray for unity for all marriages in this world, where the blessing is commanded.
