married to strangers

most of us think of an eventful wedding and a happy ever after marriage.
and most of think we know who we are married to - you should, even matchmade marriage also you would know a little bit or less about your to-be second half.
my mother always say, marriage is a gamble, we are all gamblers who are willing to put our neck on the blade (kuangkuangkuang...)

i know who my husband is. i know who he is when we were dating. but of course, who we date is only the tip of the iceberg. after your wedding, you woke up next to a stranger. to certain people, they woke to a total stranger. but, if u love each other, you will compromise on learning each other better, accepting and adjusting for the better.

my post titles 'married to strangerS'

this one i wasnt just referring to your spouse but THE FAMILY (drum roll please...)

family ni tak kira la dekat ke jauh ke... but the day you said your vow, u are married to this people as well. same goes to your family. thus, more understanding and more give and take are required. if u manipulated the situation well, u will get the benefits. and in Islam, the most important thing is do the right thing and you will get your pahala.

problem sometimes are, these strangers are not easy to handle. and they are not easy to be avoided as well! sometimes, hipocracy works wonders... (wink wink)

as for me, these strangers are some unavoidable (is there such word?) and the more you try to avoid them, the more they come menyengih at your face doing things that surely put your patience to test. so, i really hope my second half is very understanding and rational and brave enough to do the right thing...!! same goes for me...
