Once upon a time, there lived a pair of lovers who loved each other. They lived in great love and affection. The man worked as a soldier in an army. One day, the man had to do his duty to a battle in another place that made him to leave his girlfriend for a moment. Before leaving for battle, he promised his girlfriend to marry her soon after going back. And the girl was consented and happy to hear about it.
So, the soldier went ahead to the battle. But, unfortunately and pathetically, he was in severe injury that made one of his legs should be amputated. Having no choice, he had to sacrifice his leg to survive. He was also in great depression and frustration when thinking about his girlfriend who waited for him to be married. He knew that it was impossible for him to marry her because of thinking she would never want to marry a one-legged man. So, he threw away his dream and his memories with his girlfriend, deciding to forget her in his lifetime.
On the other side, the girl had waited for him for a long time without getting news about her boyfriend. She did not know where he was, what his condition was, if he was still alive or not, why he did not contact her and etc. Year by year had passed, but the girl hadn’t known about his boyfriend yet. She asked anyone, but the results were zero until she finally gave up.
The one-legged soldier went back to his hometown after having not been there for years. On his way home, he saw a crowd in front of a church, but it was too much crowd. He thought there was a marriage, but wondered why there were so many people watching. He then got there to see what was happening. He was so surprised that there were a bride and a bridegroom. And the bride was his girlfriend whom he had left. He was so sad and regretted of what he had done but he was happy too because she married a perfect man better than him who had been handicapped. Then he saw who her husband was, and what he was seeing made him wanted to crash his head to the wall. The bridegroom had worse condition than he had. The bridegroom lost his both leg. So, his girlfriend married with no-legged man sitting on a wheel-chair.
Message for readers:
Nobody is perfect. I know and you too, that a person can’t be perfect that can do anything, being anything and get anything in life. Most of us often compare ourselves to another who is better than us and being depressed. You perhaps demean yourself when you meet someone or other people who are better than you are in some fields. But you have to remember that they have some weaknesses in some other fields too.
