Read something off a forum...

Taken from a forum post;
When it comes to the moment of truth, there isn’t much of men or women who are willing to go thru thick and thin together. Today’s relationship had been bonded by too many constraints, mainly financial issue. Unlike decades ago, a simple wedding, stay with the parents and grow old together. Nowadays it is about buying an apartment, wedding photos, wedding banquet and the honeymoon.

Seen friends who got sucked into this turmoil, like a cancerous tumor, it just keep spreading. I can never fathom the morale of spending $10K on a photo shoot where the most glamorous moment is when your guest prior entry to the dinner table, stole a few glances and ending up underneath the pile of old magazines deep in the storeroom. The only superlative excuse I can gather is that this is a once in a lifetime matter. I was left laughing hysterically upon hearing this for I believe this is also a once in a lifetime most expensive photo shoot. Like the peace before the tsunami waves, first the water receded so fast way beyond you imagination, just like the cash in you bank. Next you went thru the banquet and flew off happily for honeymoon, to a place that sucks up your two months’ salary even before you set foot on that land. Like the fish left high and dry when the water receded, you gasp for breath when you see the price tag on the things there. Like the ignorant child seeing the marine life on the beach, fascinated by the view, she urges you to further on, again “Once in a lifetime” at helms again. Blinded by the love and not wanting to disappoint her, you say to yourself, no worries, I can manage the cash, I can still max out the cards. Hence the both of you went chasing the depleting water, it was fun, absolute beyond words can describe. Slowly you see the sea birds fly and the faraway white line of the waves, it get bigger and more, just like you bills laid before you. You flew back to your new home, sat down and start worrying about the white line you saw as it seems to get higher, when finally the bill came, for the banquet, for the honeymoon, for the expenditure. Like the ruthless waves, the figures sent you spinning, gasping for air, you heart pound like…. Well “Once in a lifetime” again.

So where is the ignorant child? She continues to act “ignorant”.
