Now I am days away from my wedding day...InsyaAllah.
I am feeling excited about it. The shopping excitement has over, now I am excited about the kenduri preparation...Oh headache sometimes does strike me, financial issue, but let go of it. Focus on the excitement.
I have a feeling that some colleagues are also excited about my wedding; I try to ignore my evil thought - they're just being busy body. No they don't!
Not only they ask me questions about my wedding preparation, they even so eager to give me sage advices about marriage life; from financial issue to the bedroom secrets (the bitter sweet and funny things about it...shh), changes that will happen and even on how to mould your husband...ha-ha.
But from all the advices they fed me, the one that really caught my attention is the tips on financial issue; thank you to my mother's financial philosophy (save save save) and own experience (emergency fund is a must have), I am sooo fuss about funding.
So, years ago, months ago, days ago, hours ago, minutes ago, seconds ago before I typed this post, I hold to the belief ; when I get married, I can save more, I will fully financially supported by my husband.
That is a good belief if you are married to a taukeh or financial savvy.
But since I will be marrying an "investment savvy" wannabe, then that belief is not idoneous.
Good news for me!
Marriage is not about take all and one side pleasure, it's about sharing, helping, relying and tolerant to each other in every aspect of life. It's true, husband has no right on his wife's saving, but then considering the household expenses that rocketing day by day, it's my duty to help and lessen the burden my husband will be dealing with. That's marriage to me.
Perhaps this is the first thing I learn about marriage, and I believe more to come.
P/S: I pray hard so that the word "tolerant" will stick in my head or otherwise...poor Edi
