Mr. Habibie said that their togetherness was 48 years and 10 days. Such a long time, isn't. It was not since their marriage but it was since the first time Habibie looked at the eyes of the lady when they met again in Bandung after they grew up. They were friends in Junior High School, but that time, they felt different.
Mostly people count their anniversary since they got married, I do too, but then I change my mind and try to count my togetherness with my husband. Well... It has been about 13 years and 6 months, 10 years before marriage and 3,6 years after marriage. I cannot be as detail as Mr. Habibie, it was not exactly since the first time I saw my husband and felt something strange in my heart. For me, it was through process.
Other things I like from Mr. Habibie is he is a romantic and a loyal man. He feels and thinks his wife is his soul mate and their feeling cannot be separated until now even by death. For me, It is so touching. In addition, after left by his wife, he puts so many pictures of her in many places in his room so that he can see her face in any position. He was also recommended to stay in mental hospital by his doctors because of deep depression after he was left by his beloved wife, but from 4 choices given, he chose to write a book, and now he can feel better. He loves his wife so much.
It makes me think about myself, will I be as lucky as Mrs. Ainun who got such a perfect love even after death, or can I be like Mr. Habibie who give tender and wonderful feeling and love forever until the end of my life? Hmmm...
How about you? Do you feel so?
