Being Engaged
November 3, 2009
Being engaged means promising each other that you will love each other for eternity, be loyal, true, and commit. The event normally involve a precious ring, which always reminds me of the movie "The Lord of the Ring".
The history of engagement ring is more myth and fantasy than the actual fact. Most people believe that "The ring" is a symbol of everlasting love, purity, devotion and commitment between two people.
Here in our part of world, the engagement period is a critical one for every couple. It’s time for meeting the parents. Both partners going through strict monitoring and at then it’s customary for the man & sometime woman to buy an engagement ring. The ring is a circle that has no beginning and no end, which is how marriage should mean.
Rabia & Danish knows each-other since their school age, and its not an easy task to keep & take the commitment to the next level. But love is a strange phenomenon which can make the world go round. May Allah bless them both with a wonderful life ahead. I am so happy for both of them.
