A husband said to his wife: "I miss my family, I hope you will prepare lunch tomorrow, so I can invite them, it's been a while."
The wife said with a sigh: "God willing, it will be good."
The husband said: "OK, I will invite them."
The next morning, the husband went to work and at one o'clock he came home, and said to his wife: "Did you cook lunch? My family will come in an hour."
And the wife said: "No, I did not cook, because your family are not strangers, they can eat what is in the house."
The husband said: "God forgive you! Why didn't you tell me yesterday that you won't cook and they will soon be arriving, what will I do?"
The wife said: "Call them and apologize to them, after all, they are not strangers."
The husband left the house upset and after a few minutes, there was a knock on the door. The wife got up, opened the door and was surprised to see her family, brothers, sisters and children!
Her father asked her, "Where is your husband?"
She said to him: "He left a while ago."
Her father said, "Yesterday, your husband invited us for lunch. Is it possible for him to invite us and leave the house?"
The wife was stunned by the news, and began rubbing her hands, puzzled that the food in the house was not befitting for her family. She called her husband and said to him: "Why didn't you tell me that you intended to invite my family for lunch?"
He said to her: "My family is your family, and yours is mine. There's no difference."
She said to him: "Please bring ready-made food with you when coming, there is no food at home."
The husband said: "I am very far from home and your family are not strangers, feed them from the food in the house as you wanted to feed my family."
Moral Lessons:
1. Support your partner's well-being and happiness. It will definitely return back to you.
2. Don't treat your partner's family like they are nothing to you. You have exchanged families immediately you get married.
3. Do unto others what you want them to do to you.
