People (myself included last time) are always saying that its very hard to find a partner in a small town like Melaka, and that we should go to big cities e.g KL to search for one. Afterall, its a numbers game isn't it? The more people you meet, the higher chance of meeting that 'special someone'. No?
Try telling Nemo's dad: "Aiya...there are so many fish in the ocean"
But that's just as stupid as saying "aiya there are so many fish in the ocean", a very common phrase spoken to comfort people who just got rejected/dumped etc. Fact is, only one fish in that big ocean is meant to be yours. And its very difficult to try search that big blue ocean all by yourself isn't it?
Therefore the best thing is to just position yourself where God wants you to be, and let Him arrange the encounter with your 'fish'. So in a way, being in a 'desert' like Melaka maybe better. Coz when that 'fish' comes, you'll definitely notice it.
In conclusion, its definitely not a numbers game.
To quote Peyton Sawyer:
"Six billion people in the world. Six billion souls.
All you need is one."
All you need is one."
