After you get married, you’re going to meet ‘better’ people than your spouse. You’re going to meet more good-looking people; kinder and more romantic people; more intelligent and funny people. You will meet people who have in abundance what your partner lacks. The mushy and romanticized idea that your partner will be everything to you, and will satisfy all your needs and wants is idolatry. Contentment in marriage is a virtue not often spoken about.
You must wake up every day appreciating everything your partner is to you, everything they have, their beauty and the things that made you marry them because if you focus on everything they don’t do well, you’ll always meet better people. Protect your heart! See their best part, and always remember that your commitment to marry is more of a duty than it is of mushy feelings. You have to stay committed even on the days you feel your spouse is no longer the best fit for you…

@txtdrkuliner Suatu hari pulang dari kerja, menepi di Upnormal Jl. Riau, Bandung untuk isi perut dan jajan karena capeee banget. Baru deh setelah menepi sejenak, pulang ke rumah.
Salah satu hal yang membuatku bahagia (kesel dikit, tapi hangat rasanya): bangun pagi dengan suara kesibukan di luar. Entah plentang-plentung cuci piring, masak-masak, suara orang berbincang. Ah. Hangat rasanya bangun tidur & tahu aku tidak sendiri.
