Second Chances
Some married couples are fortunate enough to stay together their whole lives. But still, there are some who have been married for many years and then still separate in the end.
It makes me wonder what could have pushed these people to get divorce. I think all those years that they have been together, they would know everything there is to know about their partners. It just makes sense that they have fully adjusted to each other’s idiosyncrasies. But I guess, people do change and it is just sad that some things could not be worked out anymore.
My parents went through the same phase a few years ago. They started to fight a lot and then there were shouting and then a cold war. My mom gave my dad a cold shoulder treatment and we were all affected. I thought they would not make up anymore. My mom was contemplating on separation and it came as a surprise to us. My brothers and I are all grown-up and we didn’t imagine that this will come at this time, not when they have been married for more than 25 years. We prepared ourselves for the worst. After all, it’s their decision and we thought whatever makes them happy and feel at peace, we will support them all the way.
But one fine day, everything fell into place. They were no longer fighting. They started talking again and finally, faced the problem. It was a joyous day for us. Their marriage was saved! We couldn’t be happier. I guess when the going gets tough, it all boils down to love. As long as it’s still within their hearts, they’ll always find their way back to each other.
