Last week I said that I am generally fascinated and occasionally frustrated by my wife. Does this mean that she has more strengths than faults. Em… good question.
Irene says that strengths and faults are two sides of the same coin. When all is fine and good, any comment is taken in with an open mind, posture and like a parachute lands safely on the runway of your mind. When the relationship is strained, a whisper becomes like a shout and a request is seen as a demand.
Irene was relating the incident between a wife and her husband.
Husband: Where is the toilet paper?
Wife: At the back of the cupboard.
Husband glared at the wife with blood shot eyes and …
Wife: You want to kill me over a toilet roll…
Apparently, the wife caught the husband on the verge of an affair. She is now watching the husband like a cat and everything he does looks like a rat. Every move is a rat. Every actions smells like a rat coming out of the rat hole. Every opportunity to check on the mobile phone log record is taken with the meticulous attention of a detective dusting for the fingerprints of potential “husband stealers”.
WOW! Irene says that when the wife finds the rat she is unhappy and throws a tantrum because there is the other woman stealing her man. When she cannot find the rat she is unhappy because there is no other woman and she wants a rat. Poor CAT lady.
You want more of such stories – go to the beauty salon and catch up the happenings in town.
Now coming back to advice on good marriage relationship from Irene:
1. Do not argue with your wife.
The wife always gets the last word in any argument between a husband and wife. Anything a husband says afterwards is the beginning of a new
argument.
argument.
2. Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, and half shut afterwards.
Just before marrying Irene I saw this plague and bought it. It reads “Finding the right person before marriage is important. Being the right person is more important”
So what type of person is Irene? Let’s talk about her after the Lunar Chinese New Year.
For this coming Chinese Lunar New Year of the RABBIT, Irene and myself wish all our readers A Happy and Prosperous Chinese New Year. Do remember that,
Every Year is a Good Year.
Do Make the Rabbit Year the Best for yourself by:
(R)ecognizing,
(A)ffirming,

You are the storyteller of your own life. You can write your own story, chart your own life and create the legend you want.
No 4 attribute of a great wife: Tell Good and Interesting Stories.
Cheers.
See you next week.
