This is such a touching story
In our modern society, these things can still happen. wow. IMO, I think the girl gives up on the guy too soon. Like she never even gave him a try; but when they hate each other like that, it’s tough too. I truly respect their selflessness to sacrifice their happiness to follow the family traditions, but why shouldn’t they make something out of it? the girl dismisses all possibility too soon. I don’t believe in the sort of crappy romances that start with people hating each other at first like in chick lit, but I do believe in the wonder of time. Given enough time, wounds can heal and bonds can be forged. It may not be love but it may be something close. heck, a friendship in a marriage is good enough in this situation in my opinion.
What I think (and this is related to my experiences as well) is that when youngsters are forced to do something, they have this tendency to rebel against that. Hence the girl’s negative feelings and impressions (like c’mon, such a handsome/ successful guy is like many girls’ dream. She got him delivered right to her feet and obviously she didn’t like that fact) when they first met. The guy’s situation was truly miserable and I don’t know what to make of it. A part of me thinks that he’s a coward for not fighting for his relationship and that he probably didn’t love his ex enough to protest the family decision; while another part of me recognizes his courage and filial love for the family. oh well.
hope they could work it out in the end. not that I would know anyway hahaha. This would make a nice romantic plot if it was not so real.
haiz it’s going to commence in 20 days i think. apps is due by then too. and I’m not confident about either. This feeling is terrible hrr. okay i gotta do sth about that window and mug geog, math, gp, bio and chem. FML.
Invictus (unconquered)
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be,
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
William Ernest Henley
KS introduced this poem to us in his farewell talk. I think it’s pure awesomeness. (if you wanna know about the poet, wiki him. He’s quite inspiring)
