Who sells saris to the wives of the salesmen who sell saris? Do those salesmen sell saris to their own wives?
Do waiters serve food to their families that may come to the restaurant?
Does a restaurant cook prepare the dishes himself when his wife and kids visit the restaurant?

Who arranges the wedding for the mandapwallahs?
Who delivers letters at a postman's home?
Do rickshawwallahs make their wives and kids pay when they give them a ride?
Do theatre doorkeepers ever get to show the seats in the dark to their wives and kids?
Do washing machine engineers repair their own washing machines and charge themselves?
Do the Electricity company folks ever need to call up their call center to ask when the electricity will be restored in their area?

Committed And In Heaven
So, it's finally happening! I am engaged and soon to be married...sounds so filmy. But true it is.
Preparations have started for the wedding and it is getting crazier by the minute. Right from the date, the time, office leaves, shopping...it's bizarre!
But in all this, I am the luckiest! Sanjeev Pradhan, my fiance is not only handsome and cool, but is also the most understanding, loving, and caring person that I have met. I am indeed lucky. I guess the mutual understanding and respect that I have seen in the two of us is indeed rare. Touch wood!
Life will move on. But I know that I will have the solid support of one person who right now dominates my thought, hopes, and dreams. Unbelievably, life has given me much more than I deserved, much more than I wanted, much more and wonderful than I had hoped. And I thank Him for that!
Here's to our new journey ahead, Sanjeev! Cheers!

Bless you!
