Unhappy wedding

I Just saw a small piece of the wedding in the neighbor, the Bridegroom came to pick up the bride to the wedding ceremony.

They never meet each other. The girl was just around sixteen or seventh. And the marriage was arranged by her father, becasue that is the Arabic culture. That was a story behind it, the boy might have paid the father, in order to get the Dutch passport.

What a sad world! Who will be satisfied with the marriage? Father? That is for sure. If by lucky, the girl will fall in love with the man, then they will have a very happy life later; If not, what will happen? Who knows.

I am thinking we are so fortunate to live in this word, We can still do what we like, choose whom we love. Even if we get hurts, but still we are able to get it over, or even say we will get chance to get it over. We may suffer some growing pains and also enjoy growing happiness. However, she can never change anything in her life. She has to live under the powerful culture.

Culture can be changed, but that is not easy, maybe after hundreds or even thousand years. At least, i can not count.

Just wish she will have a better new life.
