When You Choose

My mom always said, when choosing a life's partner, one should always look inside. Not so much at the beauty which can capture your heart and leave you wanting. But the graces which surrounds the person. Is he/she polite, attentive to your needs, slow to get angry, but quick to make up. And mean it. Not just by mere words, but in deeds of courage. Is the person you are picking a modeler for the future. It may be too early for all that you believe you see. But somewhere deep inside it will appear. We cannot know all for it is never revealed. But choose wisely as this will be your life's journey.
