戴夫和莎拉是一对非常恩爱的夫妻，他们结婚已经10年，但一直没有孩子，而现在是他们结婚后的第11年了。
他们俩都非常希望在婚姻的第11年结束之前能有一个孩子，因为他们都受到了朋友和家人让他们离婚的劝说。但他们都无法放手，因为他们之间有着强烈的爱。
几个月过去了，有一天。戴夫下班回家，看到妻子与一男人一路走开了。那个男人搂着她的脖子，他们显得很开心。
在一个多星期里，戴夫在不同的地方看到了这个男人与他妻子在一起，有一天晚上，戴夫下班回来时看到了那个男人开车送她回来，还在她脸颊上吻了一下。
戴夫既气愤又伤心，但他没有与妻子说起这件事。
两天后，忙完了一整天的活，戴夫拿着一只玻璃罐去饮水机接水时，电话铃响了。
他捡起话筒，来电者说：“你好，亲爱的，我今晚来你家看你，我答应了的。”
戴夫挂了电话。
那是一个男性的声音，他肯定这个人就是他见到的与他妻子在一起的那个人。他突然浑身发抖，因为他想到他已经把妻子输给了另外一个男人。
玻璃罐从他手中掉了下来，摔成了碎片。
他妻子跑进房间问：“没事吧？”
他在愤怒中推了妻子一把，她摔倒了。
她不动也不起来。
这时，戴夫意识到她摔倒在他打碎玻璃罐的地方了。
一块很大的玻璃从她背部刺进了她的身体。
他摸了摸她的呼吸、脉搏和心跳，但她已经是毫无生气地躺在那里了。
在一片混乱之中，他看到她手中拿着一个信封。他取出信封打开，被里面的内容震惊了——那是一封信。上面写的是：
我亲爱的丈夫，说话已经无法表达我的感受了，所以我得把它们写下来。我去看医生已经一个多星期了，我想等这个消息确定之后再告诉你。
医生证实了我怀了双胞胎。这位医生是我失散多年的哥哥，我们结婚后我就跟他失去了联系。他答应照顾我和我们的孩子，给我们最好的，一分钱也不收。
他还答应今天来跟我们一起吃晚饭。感谢你一直在我身边。
爱你的妻子。
信从他手里掉了下来。这时，有人敲门，他看到的与他妻子在一起的那个男人走进来说：“你好，戴夫，我想我没叫错吧。我是麦克斯，你妻子的哥哥。”
麦克斯突然看到他妹妹躺在血泊之中。她已经昏迷，他立即将她送到医院。她失去了她的双胞胎。
这个故事告诉我们，在一段关系或婚姻中，无论我们看到了或听到了伴侣或配偶的任何事情，在向其提出疑问之前，我们都不应该过快地采取不必要的行动。我们全都有自己的缺点。我们不应该过快地去评判别人。你的所见、所闻和对某人的看法并非全都是真实的。要学会在任何情况下都能控制自己，无论你听到了或是看到了什么。

Bond of Love and the Truth
A very loving couple had been married for over 10 years without any child and it was becoming their 11th year.
Dave and Sarah stayed with each other and greatly hoped that they will have a child before their 11th year of marriage runs out because they were under persuasion from friends and family members to get a divorce. But they couldn’t let go because of the strong bond of love between them.
Months passed and one day, while Dave was returning from work, he saw his wife walking down the road with a man. The man had his arms around her neck and they looked very happy.
For over a week, he saw the same man with his wife at various places and one evening while Dave was returning from work he saw the man drop her off at the house after giving her a kiss on the cheek.
Dave was angry and sad but he didn’t spoke of it with his wife.
Two days later after a hectic day at work, Dave was taking water with a glass jug from the dispenser when the phone rang.
He picked it up and the person said, ”Hello dear, I’ll be coming to your house this evening to see you as promised.”
Dave hung up the phone.
It was a male voice and he was sure the person was the man he had always seen his wife with. He suddenly became shaky with the thought that he has lost his wife to another man.
The glass jug fell from his hand and shattered into pieces.
His wife came running into the room asking, ”Is everything okay?”
In anger, he gave his wife a push and she fell.
She wasn’t moving or getting up.
Dave then realized that she fell where he broke the glass jug.
A large piece of glass had pierced her.
He felt her breath, pulse, and heartbeat but there she lay lifeless.
In a total confusion, he saw an envelope in her hand. He took it, opened it and was shocked by its content – it was a letter. It read:
“My loving husband, words can not express how I feel so I had to write it down. I have been going to see a doctor for over a week and I wanted to be sure before I give you the news.
The doctor confirmed it that I am pregnant with a twin. The same doctor is my long lost brother whom I lost contact with after our marriage. He has promised to take care of me and our baby and give us the best without collecting a dime.
He also promised to have dinner with us today. Thanks for staying by my side.
Your loving wife.
The letter fell from his hand. There was a knock at the door and the same man he had seen with his wife came in and said, ”Hello Dave, I suppose I’m right. I am Max, the brother of your wife”
Suddenly, Max noticed his sister lying in a pool of her blood. He rushed her to the hospital and she was in a coma. She had lost her twins.
Moral: We should not be too quick to take unnecessary actions in our relationship or marriage when we haven’t questioned our partner or spouse on what we saw or heard about them. We all have our faults. We shouldn’t be too fast to judge others. Not everything you see, hear or believe about someone is true. Always learn to control yourself under any condition or situation, irrespective of what you’ve heard or seen.
