> My husband is an Engineer by profession, I love him for his steady nature,

> Three years of courtship and now, two years into marriage, I would

> him before, has now transformed into the cause of all my restlessness.
>
> I am a sentimental woman and extremely sensitive when it comes to a
> relationship and my feelings, I yearn for the romantic moments,
> like a little girl yearning for candy. My husband, is my complete
opposite,
> his lack of sensitivity, and the inability of bringing romantic moments
into
> our
> marriage has disheartened me about love.
>
> One day, I finally decided to tell him my decision, that I wanted a
divorce.
> "Why?" he asked, shocked. "I am tired, there are no reasons for
> everything in the world!" I answered.
> He kept silent the whole night, seems to be in deep thought with a
> lighted cigarette at all times.
>
> My feeling of disappointment only increased, here was a man who can't
> even express his predicament, what else can I hope from him?
>
> And finally he asked me:" What can I do to change your mind?"
> Somebody said it right, it's hard to change a person's personality,
> and I guess, I have started losing faith in him.
>
> Looking deep into his eyes I slowly answered : "Here is the question,
> if you can answer and convince my heart, I will change my mind,
> let's say, I want a flower located on the face of a mountain
> cliff, and we both are sure that picking the flower will cause your
> death, will you do it for me?"
>
> He said :" I will give you your answer tomorrow...
> " My hopes just sank by listening to his response.
>
> I woke up the next morning to find him gone, and saw a piece of paper
> with his scratchy handwriting, underneath a milk glass, on the dining
> table near the front door, that goes....
>
> My dear,
> "I would not pick that flower for you, but please allow me to explain
> the reasons further.."
>
> This first line was already breaking my heart. I continued reading.
>
> "When you use the computer you always mess up the Software programs,
> and you cry in front of the screen, I have to save my fingers so that
> I can help restore the programs.
>
> You always leave the house keys behind, thus I have to
> save my legs to rush home to open the door for you.
>
> You love traveling but always lose your way in a new city,
> I have to save my eyes to show you the way.
>
> You always have the cramps whenever your "good friend"
> approaches every month, I have to save my palms so that I can calm
> the cramps in your tummy.
>
> You like to stay indoors, and I worry that you will be
> infected by infantile autism. I have to save my mouth to tell you
> jokes and stories to cure your boredom.
>
> You always stare at the computer, and that will do
> nothing good for your eyes, I have to save my eyes so that
> when we grow old, I can help to clip your nails,and help to remove
> those annoying white hairs.
> So I can also hold your hand while strolling down the beach,
> as you enjoy the sunshine and the beautiful sand... and tell you the
> colour of flowers, just like the color of the glow on your young face...
>
> Thus, my dear, unless I am sure that there is someone
> who loves you more than I do...
> I could not pick that flower yet, and die.. "
>
> My tears fell on the letter, and blurred the ink of his handwriting...
> and as I continue on reading...
>
> "Now, that you have finished reading my answer, if you
> are satisfied, please open the front door for I am standing outside
> bringing your favorite bread and fresh milk...
>
> I rush to pull open the door, and saw his anxious face, clutching
> tightly with his hands, the milk bottle and loaf of bread....
>
> Now I am very sure that no one will ever love me as much
> as he does, and I have decided to leave the flower alone...
>
> That's life, and love. When one is surrounded by love, the feeling of
> excitement fades away, and one tends to ignore the true love that lies
> in between the peace and dullness.
>
> Love shows up in all forms, even very small and cheeky forms, it has
> never been a model, it could be the most dull and boring form.. .
> Flowers and romantic moments are only used and appear
> on the surface of the relationship.
>
> Under all this, the pillar of true love stands and that's our life...
> Love, not words, win arguments.
