Stop wondering. Try it. You just may like it; I should know.......

By the way, ever wondered why the "arranged" marriages hold on while
those based on "love" have a greater probability to breakup ?
I think it is because when the basis of "love marriages" (i.e. LOVE)
evaporates, so do the marriages. On the other hand the "arranged"
marriages keep on going strong because they never were based on
such fragile a thing as "love".

Oh boy! Did I say all that? It's only Monday.

Jai Hind.....
