Yes, I agree, that I am very lucky in the sense that I have a partner whom is open minded enough to embrace new beliefs. In our initial years together, I did state my opinion that in a relationship, both parties would have to sacrifice for a common goal.

It would be senseless to keep oneself in a relationship that goes nowhere regardless if both parties love each other very much.

Precious

Terima kasih atas nasihat anda dan terima kasih kerana melawat laman saya. Tetapi dengan hormatnya saya tidak setuju dengan pepatah “biar mati anak jangan mati adat”

Benar, kita harus bangga dengan adat. Sebagai orang Melayu, saya cukup bangga dengan susila orang Melayu dan Insyallah saya akan mempraktikan budaya Melayu dimana jua saya berada.

Tetapi Ibu yang mana sanggup membiarkan anaknya mati kerana adat. Ini bagaikan gadis-gadis di negara Iran, Afrika, India dan lain-lain yang dirogol dan dibunuh kerana “ADAT”

Maaf jikalau tersinggung, tetapi saya tidak berfesahaman dengan peribahasa yang kuno itu.

Kita sepatutnya mencipta kehidupan yang terbaik untuk diri kita sendiri. Rohani dan Jasmani.
