Endearing Love

They may be poor but they are so in love.  They have tasted the bitterness of life but now they are drinking in the sweet love of their marriage.  Yesterday, I read an article in the Chinese evening paper.  The story is about a Chinese 58-year-old Mr Wu Zheng Zhen, a rag and bone man’s deep love for his wife, Mdm Xie Gui Zhi.  Mdm Xie had the dream of owning a piano for many years.  Her husband kept her desire in his heart and worked hard to save the money to make the purchase.  He was determined to fulfill his wife’s dream.  It took him 16 long years to save the money.  He went a long way to pursue the one who meant so much to him.

The heartwarming story of this amazing love brings out the beauty of sacrifice for love.  A love between a couple that is so rich and endearing.  We can sacrifice without loving someone, but love always involves sacrifice.  In their poverty, their love for each other shines brightly to warm the hearts of people throughout the world.
