A man married a beautiful girl. He loved her very much. One day she developed a skin disease. Slowly she started to lose her beauty. It so happened that one day her husband left for a tour. While returning he met with an accident and lost his eyesight. However their married life continued as usual. But as days passed she lost her beauty gradually. Blind husband did not know this and there was not any difference in their married life. He continued to love her and she also loved him very much.
One day she died. Her death brought him great sorrow.
He finished all her last rites and wanted to leave that town.
A man from behind called and said, now how will you be able to walk all alone? All these days your wife used to help you.
He replied, I am not blind. I was acting, because if she knew l could see her ugliness it would have pained her more than her disease. So I pretended to be blind. She was a very good wife. I only wanted to keep her happy.
Moral:- *Some times it is good for us to act blind and ignore one another's short comings, in order to be happy*
*No matter how many times the teeth bite the tongue, they still stay together in one mouth. That's the spirit of FORGIVENESS. Even though the eyes don't see each other, they see things together, blink simultaneously and cry together. That's UNITY." May the Lord grant us all the spirit of forgiveness and togetherness*.
_''Alone I can 'Say' but together we can 'talk'._

*That's the BEAUTY of Human Relations. We are nothing without each other*

Moral:- *Some times it is good for us to act blind and ignore one another's short comings, in order to be happy*

That's what make fake stories so great, you can pretend to prove anything you want by manipulating fake people, and force/manipulate real people to feel guilt for not living up to an impossible expectation.

Moral:- *Some times it is good for us to act blind and ignore one another's short comings, in order to be happy*

You can just as easily say:
"Moral - it's okay to lie to your partner, and misrepresent who you really are, for the sake of what you believe will make them happy."

That's a dangerous moral to try and put into practical use.

Other than that, it seems kind of a horrible story.

To me it would be a better (more representative of the current culture) fake story if it was more like "yes, honey, your condition is ugly. But I have known you for so long, I know your spirit, I know your generosity, I know what you've gone through, I know how this makes you feel, I know the stress and strife you are going through with your condition, I know your heart, and all of that is beautiful, your skin is not who I fell in love with, I know you deeper than that, and I find you more beautiful than the first time I saw you because I know who you are and how you feel and see everything you do, for me, for others, in adversity how you sparkle. I see your skin condition, but I see so much more."

Pretending to be blind seems more like a cop out, taking an easy way out.

*No matter how many times the teeth bite the tongue, they still stay together in one mouth. That's the spirit of FORGIVENESS. Even though the eyes don't see each other, they see things together, blink simultaneously and cry together. That's UNITY."

The teeth, tongue, mouth, eyes, have absolutely no choice in the matter.

So you're saying it's "better" if there's some kind of higher power forcing things to behave a certain way, regardless of what the things may want to do?

*That's the BEAUTY of Human Relations. We are nothing without each other*

There also can't be murder without more than 1 person.

_The razor blade is sharp but can't cut a tree; the axe is strong but can't cut the hair._

And both are worthless without hands to use them.
So don't date amputees or the handicapped?

*Everyone is important according to his/her unique purpose,Never look down on anyone unless you are admiring their shoes

Then how do they know they need to live up to something more, regale them with fake stories about people you can look down on?
How does someone determine their unique purpose?
"Oh, you want to soil yourself, be hand fed pizza and soda, and just play video games all day while collecting a welfare check? OK, well, I'm not allowed to look down on you for making that choice, because that must be your unique purpose, and I wouldn't want you to live up to any other potential."
