The Best Companion

The counsellor was trying to help a man in finding a good wife. So the counsellor asked the man what qualities is he searching for in the woman of his dreams. The man replied by saying ‘Well, I would like her with great features, with a sense of humor, who likes sport, advanced in her schooling, likes to sing and dance, hangs out with me in my free time, talks to me about interesting stories, and stays quiet when I want to rest.’ The counsellor looked at him and without blinking an eye, told him: ‘Well, my suggestion is that you buy a TV set, as that will satisfy all your needs. That would definitely be better than marrying a woman. It will serve you very well as you can turn it on and off whenever you like.’ Some people claim that the perfect couple consist of a man who cannot hear properly, and a woman who is blind. This way, the deaf man cannot hear the complaints of his wife, and the woman cannot see the defects and weaknesses of her husband. Every successful partnership and marriage is the union of two people who can be patient with each other and are merciful when dealing with one another. We pray that all couples be patient, tolerant and respectful of one another, and it certainly helps when you make room for God in your lives.
