To accept

Was talking to my German teacher Frau Ernst the other day, i have to mention- Frau Ernst, she has energy of a 12 year old girl although she is 73, and insist on teaching even though her husband doesn't agree. Her passion is inspiring but she likes to talk...A LOT, but that i can understand, after all what do you expect from a 73 year old lady?

As always, she likes to talk about 'absolutely anything' during our lessons, and at that particular day, she told us a secret. A secret of happy marriage. How she remain happy for the last 45 years.

'You have to accept the other person completely and never try to change him/her. that's the secret of happy marriage'

In some way, i do agree with her, but can it be done? i doubt.

love is all about forgiving, and that comes after acceptance... i truly understand it, but i dont think i can ever do it...
