今天聽陳謳明牧師一席話,受益匪淺。其中最觸動我的,是他說道,在未來的日子里,或早或晚,你們會碰到一個比你身邊的人更適合你的人,而在那個時候,如果你能夠說NO,你才能變得integrity。
我慢慢瞭解到愛情和婚姻并不只是關於如何尋找兩個契合的因子組成一個完美公式,並且將這個完美公式維持一生的過程,它更是我們各人更貼近,并去效法上主的大愛的歷練。
愿我能更多地體驗到婚姻並不只是雙方協議共同遵守的合約,它更是上帝與以色列民之間的契約,無論對方怎樣都不改變自己的忠貞與誓言;它也更是一個聖禮,不僅僅是在婚禮當日,而是要在家庭的每一天裏,都有上帝的臨在,見證上主的大愛,在我們與上主之間,也活生生地在我們彼此之間。
<Shouldn’t I Be Less In Love With You?> — from the musical ‘I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change’
The experts say it does not last.
The experts say it’s fleeting.
The experts bray love fades so fast
Then tell me why is my heart still beating?
Shouldn’t I be less in love with you?
Shouldn’t I address what time can do?
Shouldn’t I be more inclined to flee?
Shouldn’t I explore all I can be?
Shouldn’t I confess a sorted fling?
Shouldn’t I carress a cute young thing?
Shouldn’t I asses what we’ve been through?
Shouldn’t I be less in love with you?
After 30 years together
All those brutal fights
those futal fights
then the sleepless nights
Shouldn’t I have quit ’cause marriage ends?
Shouldn’t we have split like all our friends?
Shouldn’t I profess it’s time to go?
Shouldn’t I be less in love with you?
NO.
