Horrifically disfigured in freak accident..


Really? Will you? Honestly... Is beauty really more than skin deep? Will you still love me tomorrow?

Uncle Pee Hock met Auntie Esther when they started working in an architecture firm. They dated for 5 years, and before he popped the question, brought her to europe for a holiday. There, she fell super ill, had a high fever and came through with brain damage. She lost her ability to speak and to feed herself or walk properly.

Uncle Pee Hock still choose to marry her and commit to her all his life. 1 in a million fairy tale. He could have chosen to leave her and find someone, being as eligible as he was. But no, he committed his life to a paraplegic.


Do these stories even happen today? Or is it a 1 hit wonder...

Even if alot of people says it is heartless, I would still think it is subjective.

Say... there's a couple who are deeply in love but the lady met with a terrible accident and can't have children ever. For the guy, he's always planning to have children. Should he still proceed to marry her when he knows clearly she can't have children? Is it unfair to deprive him a chance of having his own children with his blood flowing in them? Doesn't seem too fair to him either, even though the lady deserves care too.

In fact, the "beauty skin deep" mentality is more obvious in physically-abled people than the unfortunate.

Been reading "If love is a game, these are the rules" by Cherie Carter-Scott.

When such a thing happens, the couple had to re-evaluate their relationship - why they partner in the first place. If a relationship is build on good looks and him having a cushy job - then when one of those elements are lost, there goes the relationship too.

Cherie talks about changes being a constant challenge in any loving relationship. If you can't re-establish an equilibrium in the realities of both parties - breakdown occurs.

In this case, they made a decision to love one another in rich or poor, in sickness and in health - a covenant not casually entered into. And drastic as this incident might have been - i'm sure it strengthened his resolve to love her life partner even more.

Authentic love relationships will last the storm of life and change.

For someone you truly love, you are prepared to commit all your life to him/her, no matter what happens. After all, it is the fundamental essence of LOVE - till death do us part..

I think little acts of love are important in showing the majority of us who are embittered and jaded, that in a world full of ugliness, true beauty can still be found...

Hearing this is restoring a little of my faith in love, given some of the home-truths I've had to face recently. -dawnie

et: agree with u about the tough decision about wanting to have children. but then I think sometimes just the ability to suddenly stop loving someone after a long term relationship is more complicated than whether she can have a child or not...

miccheng: I hope for all our good, relationships are more than cushy jobs or good looks.

dawn, pubed, may min thu: yup, at least it gives us mere mortals hope...

ET said...

I agree. It's close to being impossible to stop loving someone at the press of a button. Love, affections and commitments are not washing machines that we can switched on and off as we like.

et: if only it was as easy as on/off

ET said...

Do you really want it that way? Or permanent?

eStee said...

i prefer permanent, but permanent by choice...

Peter said...

Yes I will.
