sometimes I just wish

These past few weeks, I feel like I'm slowly drifting away. Sometimes I just wish I can lay down and never have to wake up to my world. Sometimes I just wish that I can be someone or something else.

The only thing I know for sure is that I'm confused. I hate being me...

what's wrong with us?

Women usually marry their fathers, is it true? I like to share an interesting observation and point of view by one of the bloggers...

"Whatever trait their fathers may have, be it good or bad, women will usually or should seek these traits in their future husbands. If their fathers were kind and loving, they will seek these men for their husbands. If their father was strict, abusive and controlling, this is the kind of husbands/partners they will seek.
If they deviate from this rule, they will usually ended up with an unhappy or happy marriage.
Understand this: If an abused daughter ended up with a controlling husband, she will actually feel happier because the abusive husband she has is a familiar facet/fixture: she grew up with such a man.

There are three kinds of fathers:
1. Disciplinarian (controlling, strict, decisive)
2. Loving (negotiable, caring, or couldn't care less)
3. Abusive (physically or emotionally, to their mother or to themselves)

Apart from no. 3, women must seek men who are like their fathers. Only then they would find happiness in their marriage. Their husbands must be as witty, as loving, as controlling, as decisive, as cynic, as crazy, as intelligent, or as demurred and as timid as their own fathers.
This analysis may be incomplete or wrong in its presentation but the assertion is true.Forget every other dictum you have read on finding good life partners, find your father in the man you want to be your husband".


No one is at fault for choosing man who is like the father. What we should not do is... "comparing the husband with the father". Please, it is a big mistake, HUGE! I have my portion to share and lessons to learn.

I regret cos I dunno...

peace

I become peacefully depressed, peacefully fearful, peacefully angry.

If love is at the core of us, we can add love to any misery we feel.

what do you think?

I came across this in one of the blogs. Interesting view and what do you think?

Adultery happens when you start looking for what you don't have. "Wow, this girl in my office is a real looker. I'm crazy about her because she's also understanding, intelligent, tender - so many things that my
spouse is not."

Somewhere along the way, you'll find a woman or a man who will be more charming or sensitive. More alluring. More thoughtful. Richer. Have greater sex appeal. And you will find a woman or man who will need you and pursue you and go loco over you more than your spouse ever did.

Because no wife or husband is perfect.

Because a spouse will only have 90% of what you're looking for. So adultery takes place when a husband or wife looks for the missing 10%.

Let's say your wife is melancholic by nature. You may find yourself drawn to the pretty clerk who has a cheery laughter.

Or because your wife is a homebody in slippers and pyjamas, smelling of garlic and fish oil, you may fall for a fresh-smelling young sales representative that visits your office in a sharp black blazer, high heels and a red pencil-cut skirt.

Or because your husband is the quiet type, your heart may skip a beat when you meet an old college flame who has the makings of a talk show host.

But wait! That's only 10% of what you don't have.

Don't throw away the 90% that you already have! Add to your spouse's 90%, the 100% that represents all the years that you have been with each other.

The storms you have weathered together. The unforgettable moments of sadness and joy as a couple.
The many adjustments you have made to love the other. The wealth of memories that you've accumulated as lovers.

Adultery happens when you start looking for what you don't have. But faithfulness happens when you start thanking God for what you already have. But I'm not just talking about marriage. I'm talking about life!

About your jobs.
About your friends.
About your children.
About your lifestyles.
Are you like the economy airline?
