Something intersting

This should probably be taped to your bathroom mirror where one could read it everyday. You may not realize it, but it's 100% true.

1. There are at least two people in this world that you would die for.

2. At least 15 people in this world love you in some way.

3. The only reason anyone would ever hate you is because they want to be just like you.

4. A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like you.

5. Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep.

6. You mean the world to someone.

7. You are special and unique.

8. Someone that you don't even know exists loves you.

9. When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it.

10. When you think the world has turned its back on you take another look.

11. Always remember the compliments you received. Forget about the rude remarks.

Happy Women’s day

In the recent parliamentary speech by Dr Vivian Balakrisnan (Minister for community development, Singapore), mentioned that most domestic problems are caused by irresponsible men. When I first heard it I didn’t agree, and after much thought I agree with him. He said before marriage he opened a joint bank account with his wife and his pay would go into that account and he allowed his wife to control his spending. He treated that as a leach. This brought about the responsibility that the money is also his wife’s. It might sound un-manly for some but I think it’s a good idea. I think I would follow it.

On this day I would also like to make a vow with my reader’s as witness that I am not going to follow one Hindu custom that the wife touches the husband’s feet to get blessing from her husband. Getting blessing form elders by touching their feet is fine but between husband and wife I want equality and I feel that my wife falling to my feet is unfair.
