The Lesson for Real Life
22 May 2002
One man. One woman. They meet. They get to know better about each other. They fall in love. They marry. However....., that's when problems begin. Marriage is not just about love. All kinds of things in life add up ever since the two tie the knot. Will Snow White and Prince Charming live happily ever after? Well, it depends on them. Some marriages remain happy after decades; some break up after just a short period of time. Everyone manages their marriages differently. However, it's not easy to keep a marriage merry and happy. So when the preacher asks the most important question in life to the couple in front of him which is also time for them to make the most important decision in life, maybe the romantic and expected "I do" should become "I'll try"!

When two people get married, they start facing all kinds of things in the life they share together. The Story of Us is just the story of many couples. In this film, we can see Katie and Ben facing the same problems that all couples have to face and deal with. Conflicts happen when they have different point of view on things and can't agree with each other or selfishly think each other is wrong. This film gives pretty sharp but real description of marriage, and also gives married people something to think about. A happy marriage doesn't come from out of the blue. It costs mutual respect, trust, and love. In movies, unhappy marriages can be fixed by romantic storyline, but in real life, it depends on couples themselves. I strongly suggest all married couples to see this meaningful and realistic film, which is a good lesson for them!
