Yeh some are very good but other are not practical in real life.. these are 50 things people toootaly in love do,, and even they would be hard pressed to keep it going for a year.. sorry but life is very complex. the sooner u relise this the better, so that u won't be dissapointed too badly. somali marriage can last even when total strangers get married,..

Yasmin that is a reasonable list but sis be a little bit more practicle with your advice.
i.e the bit about sending valentine cards, it pointless i will tell you.

Valentines day is just another way to boost consumer spending just like christmas and easter and so on.

mind you some of your other points are really simple and smart and as they say it's the little things that make the difference in any relationship


peace sis

Mohamed.

Salaamu alaikum

Waxaan filayaa inanta keentey topic waa gabadh ka dhacsan diinta islaamka iyo macaanideeda.

Walaaal, waxaan ku odhan lahaa inta aad raaceysid wax qof kula mid ahi qorey....dhagahaaga u fur Kitaabka barakeysan iyo Sunahha Nebiga(scw)...halkaas baad ka helaysaa cimli iyo xikmada iyo waxa aad ka raadineyso mmagazine ka ay qoraan kaaladu.

Diinteenu waa shay dhameystiran oo aad ka heli karto wax kasta, sidaas darteed walaal adiga iyo inta kugu raacsaniba waad halawsantihiin ee Rabi haydin soo hadeeyo.

Waar Rabi kala baqo, oo diinta yaan la dayicin laguna ciyaarin , xisaab baa danbeyseee

Yasmin-
Interesting list. Cosmo?
Realisticaly there are only 2 things that will make a marriage work-
1. Respect, and
2. Responsibility.

If a man and woman respect each other and they both fulfil their responsibility to each other, they will have a wonderful and LASTING marriage.

The rest, as they say, are simply Hollywood-inspired and Hallmark-encoaraged activities.

Asalmualykum
I just wanted to share this with everyone......
it was originally an email.
And its good.

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings,
but shorter tempers;
wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints;
we spend more, but have less;
we buy more, but enjoy it less.

We have bigger houses and smaller families;
more conveniences, but less time;
we have more degrees, but less sense;
more knowledge, but less judgement;
more experts, but more problems;
more medicine, but less wellness.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.
We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We've learned how to make a living, but not a life;
We've added years to life, not life to years.

We've been all the way to the moon and back,
but have trouble crossing the street to meet the neighbors;
We have higher incomes, but lower morals;
We've become long on quantity, but short on quality.

These are the times of tall men, and short character;
steep profits and shallow relationships.
These are the times of world peace, but domestic warfare;
more leisure, but less fun;
more kinds of food, but less nutrition.

These are the days of two incomes, but more divorce;
of fancier houses, but broken homes.

It is a time when there is much in the show window and nothing in the
stockroom; a time when technology can bring this letter to you,
and a time when you can choose either to make a difference,
or to just hit delete......
