FLYING A FIRST CLASS LIFE...(Part 1.)

many of us live less than the first class life we were meant to have mainly because we stop to look at what we do not have. Here is the extract with a greater influence from the movie “WHY DID I GET MARRIED,” by Tyler Perry. it may be about marriage but really is this not how we look at our own lives and hence become unhappy?

“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 appeal, and you will find a woman or man who will need you and pursue you and go all over you more than your spouse ever did. Because no girlfriend/wife or boyfriend/husband is perfect. Because a spouse will only have 80% of what you're looking for. So adultery takes place when a guy or gal looks for the missing 20%.

Let's say your girlfriend/wife is gloomy\moody by nature. You may find yourself drawn to the pretty young thing that has a cherry laugh no matter what she says: "I broke my arm yesterday, Hahahaha."

Or because your girlfriend/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 boyfriend/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 20% of what you don't have. Don't throw away the 80% that you already have!

That's not all. Add to your spouse's 80% the 100% that represents all the months/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 gave.....
