"concentrate on your career, save the money and get married." that was what my uncle told me in our 5minutes conversation when he called home this morning with the intention to talk to my mum.
thinking about what he said has made me realized that he just uttered the resolution that i myself should have made. i guess love and i are done with the 'getting to know' part and we are definitely ready to climb the next step hand-in-hand. which is to concentrate on our careers, make the most out of it and finally settle down.
since love have settled in nicely to his new job which is just a walking distance away from his home, *roll my eyes with envy*, it definitely leave the both of us alot of time to concentate on our own passion. it somehow creates the space that we need to groom ourselves with the knowledge that is laid out for us to grab. and mum said this morning "nasib la kau, takde la kau bergantung 24 jam pat handphone."
alot of planning have been made for this year. and we're starting it slow and steady. by the end of the day i'm confident enough that we will reach the goal that we have set for our relationship by the end of the year.
and of course there are alot of other people who really doubt our relationship saying, "are you sure you're ready enough to settle down? do you think it's to early to judge that he is the one for you?" yes i know girlfriends that you care for me alot. i appreciate that but hey, compared to the i've lost count number of relationships i had to love, i feel that this is the most stable relationship i've had so far. from the focus of just the two of us and extending it out to our families, i guess it's all connected.
after all, it takes two hands to clap to produce a sound. commitments and sacrifices and nothing else.
