-=| Love and Marriage.... |=-
Another clipping which i found interesting.....

One day, Plato asked his teacher, "What is love?
How can I find it?"

His teacher answered, "There is a vast wheat
field in front. Walk forward without turning
back, and pick only one stalk. If you find the
most magnificent stalk, then you have found
love."

Plato walked forward, and before long, he
returned with empty hands,having picked nothing.

His teacher asked, "Why did you not pick any
stalk?"

Plato answered, "Because I could only pick once,
and yet I could not turn back. I did find the
most magnificent stalk, but did not know if
there
were any better ones ahead, so I did not pick
it.
As I walked futher, the stalks that I saw were
not as good as the earlier one, so I did not
pick
any in the end.

His teacher then said, "And that is love."


On another day, Plato asked his teacher,
"What is marriage? How can I find it?"

His teacher answered, "There is a thriving
forest
in front. Walk forward without turning back,
and chop down only one tree. If you find the
tallest tree, then you have found love."

Plato walked forward, and before long, he
returned with a tree. The tree was not thriving,
and it was not tall either. It was only an
ordinary tree.

His teacher asked,
"Why did you chop down such an ordinary tree?"

Plato answered, "Because of my previous
experience. I walked halfway through the forest,
but returned with empty hands. This time, I saw
this tree, and I felt that it was not bad, so I
chopped it down and brought it back. I did not
want to miss the opportunity."

His teacher then said,
"And that is marriage."
