I got good news this morning from my friend. Her mother has finally 'nodded'! She is going to get married! Wow, I was so excited for her and really congratulate her for her 'achievement' in persuading her Mum to say 'yes' for a relationship she has built with her beloved for 6 years. 6 YEARS! You might not believe it! A tree of love that has been seeded and been growing for such a long time when it was very dim to flower is now starting to have some blossoms and fruit.
I haven't known her for a long time, but we talked heart to heart. Her mother is a highly superstitious woman and will believe in whatever bads a fortune-teller might say and turn down whatever goods she is told. My friend has tried to persuade her for several times in the last few years, yet she did not allow. They are really a good match, I believe, yet according to the fortune-teller, the man being 6 years older than her will not end up with long-lasting happiness. That's too bad! The friend and her mother have seen many other fortune-tellers to hear different sayings, and it turned out that good sayings are fewer than the bad ones. With love and care, her mother is concerned how her daughter will suffer after the marriage, she was so 'stubborn' and never said YES.
Until before this Chinese New Year, my friend determined to fight for her happiness. She went to her mother again and plead for acceptance. After two weeks of silence (or fewer words) between mother and daughter, the mother finally agreed.
She is getting engaged at the end of this month and getting married in this coming June or July.
She has finally got to her goal. The relationship finally gives fruit. Wish her good luck and happiness with her Valentine. Their commitment and perseverance do impress me.
Dear friend, Happy Valentine's Day!
