A student asked a teacher, "What is love?"
The teacher said, "in order to answer your question, go to the wheat field and choose the biggest wheat and come back.
But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick."
The student went to the field, went thru first row, he saw one big wheat, but he wondered....may be there is a bigger one later.
Then he saw another big one... but may be there is a bigger one waiting for him, he thought.
Later, when he finished more than half of the wheat field, he start to realize that the wheat is not as big as the previous one he saw, he knows he has missed the biggest one, and he regrets.
So, he ended up going back to the teacher empty handed.
The teacher told him, "...this is love... you keep looking for a better one, but later you realise, you have already missed the person...."
"What is marriage then?" the student asked.
The teacher said, "in order to answer your question, go to the corn field and choose the biggest corn and come back. But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick."
The student went to the corn field, this time he is careful not to repeat the previous mistake, hence, when he reached the middle of the field, he picked one medium corn that he felt satisfied with, and came back to the teacher.
The teacher told him, "this time you brought back a corn.... you looked for one that is just nice, and you had faith and believed that this is the best one you will get.... this is marriage."*
