This went on until there were just four names left on the blackboard. These were names of her mother, father, husband and the only son...
The entire class became silent realizing that this wasn't a game anymore for Aliza alone.
Now, The Teacher told her to delete two more names.
It was a very difficult choice for Aliza.
She unwillingly deleted her parents names.

"Please delete one more" said the Teacher.
Aliza became very nervous and with trembling hands and rears in eyes she deleted her son's name. Aliza cried painfully...
The Teacher told Aliza to take her seat.
After a while Teacher asked "why your husband?? The parents are the ones that nurtured you, and the son is the one you gave birth to ??? And you can always find another husband !!!"

Aliza calmly and slowly said, "One day my parents will pass away before me.
My son may also leave me when he grows old, for his studies or business or whatever reason. The only one who will truly share his entire life with me, is my Husband".
My son may also leave me when he grows old, for his studies or business or whatever reason. The only one who will truly share his entire life with me, is my Husband".
All the students stood up and applauded for her for sharing this truth of life.
This is true. So always value your life partner, it's not only for husbands but wives as well.
God has united these two souls and it's on you now to nurture this relationship above all
It's a
great message that spouse is to be regarded, respected and valued. But this should not be at the cost of other family members when they are alive. They also need equal and uncompromisable attention , love and care specially your PARENTS!
