While I was here, I've had an opportunity to met this guy. I called him Naz. He works as a System Engineer from one of our vendor . He's engaged and will marry soon. He's about to marry the daughter from a rich family.
For the sake of conversation, I teased him once, "you're very lucky guy, how you managed to get this girl?". And he smiled and replied instantly. "There is a English proverb that we have to always keep in our mind, If your father is not rich, that's because of your fate, but if your father in law is not rich, that's because of your stupidity". Emmm...that's very good proverb, and this is the first time I've heard about it.
I knew that I'm poor, neither my parent nor myself could afford to buy an imported car, therefore, in my understanding, we are poor. Nonetheless, I'm very happy with life now, my parent are doing well so far, my sister already settle down, so I think, there no reason for me chase a rich girl in order to have financial stability. He perhaps got lucky because he managed to get that package, but I have my own package and will pursue for it. The bottom line is that, I'm happy with my life now, with the people surround me and tried to live with that boundary. We have to be ourself and honest with ourself.Emmm...nice proverb anyway..maybe I can apply it when the time comes.
