When is the last time you took a risk? How did it work out?
That was a long time ago when we married. We are still trying to see what brought us together.

When Covid19 struck, “social distancing” was practiced. Many shut themselves indoors and some chose to defy the strict rules. They met us, come what may. And the “some” still stay with us in our hearts. Bravo!
What relationships have a positive impact on you?
An affair with one’s own wife in Indian marriages!
What aspects of your cultural heritage are you most proud of or interested in?
Amidst a bonhomie, invitation sent to hundreds and thousands and a week long festivity culminating in a marriage of two distant souls. All arranged strictly by the elders in families. The couple have never met before. Not a word spoken. Pushed into a bed overnight with a whole lot of family guarding the door near the bed. One should live in a joint family from the day next. All their life. You’re allowed only to enjoy a limited private time with your partner. I shall call it an ‘affair’ with one’s own wife. And it’s traditional here in India.
Too good a partner. Yet too short to continue! Sorry!
Think of Brazil. A football legend’s name comes up. He’s none other than Pele.
Three-time World Cup champion. 1279 goals to his credit. It’s a Guinness World Record.
Intentional Player of the Century. FIFA player of the Century. And more.
But we are not talking about Pele here.
Kaka is another popular player from Brazil. He formed part of the team which won the World Cup for Brazil in 2002.
He married his childhood friend Caroline Celica in 2005. They were living happily for 10 years before his wife announced divorce in 2015.
What did she say the reason for the break-up?
The social media were outraged at what she did say.
She said; “Kaka never cheated on me, he always treated me well. He gave me a wonderful family, but I wasn’t happy.
Something was missing”.
She said Kaka was too perfect for her.
A husband as good and perfect as Kaka was too good for a wife. And that means a complete man or perfection in a man can still split a pair.
How ironical!

Why Some Indian Women Still Turn to Matchmakers to Find Love – The New York Times
Gone are the days, when one should give the mantle of finding a suitable partner for marriage to one’s parents. In a fast-paced world, many nowadays don’t rush into a relationship, let alone raising the subject of marriage. Girls, now are career girls first and a homemaker next.
