I&#8217;m crazy about her because she&#8217;s also understanding, intelligent, tender &#8211; so many things that my spouse is not.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Somewhere along the way, you&#8217;ll find a woman or a man who will be more charming or sensitive. <\/p>\n<p>More alluring. More thoughtful. Richer. Have greater sex appeal. And you will find a woman or man who will need you and pursue you and go loco over you more than your spouse ever did. <\/p>\n<p>Because no wife or husband is perfect. Because a spouse will only have 90 of what you&#8217;re looking for. So adultery takes place when a husband or wife looks for the missing 10%. <\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s say your wife is melancholic by nature. <\/p>\n<p>You may find yourself drawn to the pretty clerk who has a cherry laughter. Or because your wife is a homebody in slippers and pyjamas, smelling of garlic and fish oil, you may fall for a fresh- smelling young sales representative that visits your office in a sharp black blazer, high heels,<br \/>\nand a red pencil-cut skirt. <\/p>\n<p>Or because your husband is the quiet type, your heart may skip a beat when you meet an old college flame who has the makings of a talk show host. <\/p>\n<p>But wait! That&#8217;s only 10% of what you don&#8217;t have. Don&#8217;t throw away the 90% that you already have! Add to your spouse&#8217;s 90% the 100% that represents all the years that you have been with each other. <\/p>\n<p>The storms you have weathered together. The unforgettable moments of sadness and joy as a couple. The many adjustments you have made to love the other. The wealth of memories that you&#8217;ve accumulated as lovers. <\/p>\n<p>Adultery happens when you start looking for what you don&#8217;t have. <\/p>\n<p>But faithfulness happens when you start thanking<br \/>\nGod for what you already have. <\/p>\n<p>But I&#8217;m not just talking about marriage.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m talking about life!<br \/>\nAbout your jobs.<br \/>\nAbout your friends.<br \/>\nAbout your children.<br \/>\nAbout your lifestyles.<br \/>\nAre you like the economy airline <\/p>\n<p>The main message:<br \/>\n<b>If you start appreciating what you have right now, wherever you are is FIRST CLASS!<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>*Points at the banner above* <\/p>\n<p>something meaningful that i took off FLOWERPOD&#8230; well&#8230; i think this is very appropriate to share this passage today&#8230;. i thot to myself&#8230;. maybe i shld stop looking and settle for my 90% now?<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s our <b>3 YEARS ANNIVERSARY<\/b>! well..  won&#8217;t say it&#8217;s fast.. coz we came a long way&#8230; and time holds many uncertainties&#8230;. slowly and maybe painfully we&#8217;ve reached another year that we are going to spend together? or not together? <\/p>\n<p>hmm&#8230;. not that i&#8217;m pessimistic BUT time holds many uncertainties you see&#8230; fortunately, i have alot of faith in BH&#8230;.
