I met him when I was 28. We were colleagues – for a short time. He joined UTL (in Whitefield) in March & in June (of the same year) we were man & wife!! My life now revolves around him, the father of my child.
From Sathya, I’ve learned to be selfish. It’s the single most important lesson of my life. He has also taught me to be supremely self-confident. I’ve suffered from bouts of low self-esteem for the longest time in my life. And this, in spite of having a truly blessed life, with many academic & professional achievements.Patience is another thing. He can wait for things to happen - for as long as it takes. For me, the time lag between thought & action is not more than 5 seconds or 5 minutes depending on what the task is. I am programmed with only 2 commands: think – do. For him, it’s think, think, think, do. I am hyper, very impulsive. He is calm & collected. He may be a 1000 times more excited than me but you couldn’t know from his face.
I am my face. His face is just the tip of the iceberg.
Janam janam ka saath – saath janmo tak?? Oh No! No way! I tell him, "Iss janam mein bahut seh liya tumhe. Ab at least in the next janam, let me be with a new, interesting, super rich, industrialist with a private yacht, & island!"
He wants Lara Dutta!!
Humour has kept our marriage alive. I would rather be with a poor, funny man than with a rich, boring man.

First time on your blog - came through Indiblogger. Liked this post - very honest and a wee bit childish. Tell me one thing, are you guys newly married? Will request you to repeat the same post after 10 years and like to see how much mush will still be left.. ha ha. Anyways, all the best for you guys.
ReplyDeleteBTW, for your comment on Lara Dutta, You may want to make sure Mahesh Bhupati does not visit your blog. :)
@Vicky: no we r not newly married. i wrote this post last year, so that makes it 5 years of marriage
ReplyDeletegood one
