The wedding was done. Lots of talks. But then again, you cannot expect everything to go exactly like you've planned right? Although there is one thing that is not so nice to hear... Apparently the cousins, especially the male cousins, don't really like the groom. More because he is not the down to earth type and lack of respect to the elders. Well. So.
When we agree to tie the know with our partner, we should realise and understand that we are also "marrying" the family. That means, our partner's family members become our extended family. We should do our best to treat them the way we treat our own family members. It's not nice to start a new chapter of our life when family members are not really keen of us, right? We could say, it's our life, we don't care what other people think. But we have to remember that our spouse might feel unhappy because we don't get along with their family.
However high you go, whatever profession you're in, whichever level of your education is at, never ever forget the roots. And we should do our best to be humble at all times, especially with the elders.
Sometimes I do wonder how a person behaves a certain way when the person is considered to be a jewel to the community. But then again, our profession does not reflect directly on our attitude, right?

To you-know-who-you-are,
Babe, let me tell you, there will be one day when you look back to today, you wonder why you were so distraught by all that is happening. That one day will come certainly. But you have to make way for it to come sooner. How you want to do that is up to you, it's not my place to tell. What I can say is that, you're stronger than you think you are. The fact that you are so sad is because you let yourself to feel that way. Seriously babe, it's time to move on when you want to move on. The way I look at it, you do not want to move on just yet. Take that first step, and you will see the difference. My hugs for you. Take care.
ps: I make a bad Aunt Agony lah... But I hope it makes sense to you. :-)

Hi Jade,
Blog hopped from momster.
On the first point, some people have this holier-than-thou attitude. Perhaps they have different perception when it comes to values.
as for the 2nd part, I think your friend will appreciate your advice.
