COMPLETE AND FINISHED
No English dictionary has been able to adequately explain the difference between these two words.
In a recently held linguistic competition held in London, England, and attended by the best in the world, Samsundar Balgobin, a Guyanese man from Bachelors Adventure, was the clear winner with a standing ovation which lasted over 5 minutes.
The final question was: How do you explain the difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED in a way that is easy to understand. Some people say there is no difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED.
Here is his astute answer.... when you marry the right woman, you are COMPLETE. When you marry the wrong woman, you are FINISHED. And when the right one catches you with the wrong one, you are COMPLETELY FINISHED!
He won a trip to travel the world in style and a case of 25 year old Eldorado Rum.

Ah the marriage! :)

I understand now why God drags us to marry (bait) and then beat us to death (of our self). God forming us into His image ;)

Hi Levy,

I regret to admit it, but "drags us to marry" is usually or perhaps always correct.
It would be wonderful if most women could come to understand the male phyche well enough to realize that most men would be content to remain single and roaming the landscape on their own if it was left up to them.
Perhaps then they would approach the married state with their own husbands a little differently. Perhaps they would understand that even a tamed beast retains its natural instincts and must be well fed and cared for as long as it lives and not exposed to temptations that it is NOT equipped to resist; apart from God's spirit.

Women, please let us have your viewpoint on this situation. (smile)
Thanks, Indiana bob

Nicely put my friend :)

While singles, we wanted to be with someone so bad (we exercise patience, etc). When married, we are faced with the most challenging thing in our lives: a battle to kill yourself everyday (altruism vs egocentrism). One way or the other, God have us right where He wants, the Potter breaking us anew.

God bless!
Levy

Hi Bob, maybe a few women do understand that  :)

I think that marriage maybe is a very faulty way that God is using to show us what unity should not be like. We know that when we will obtain unity/oneness with God in the marriage to Jesus Christ it will be the most wonderful thing ever. So now we are getting a taste of the dark physical side of unity, so we will more appreciate the right heavenly side of it then.

mercy, peace and love
