Follow The Gods
The WTF quote of the day comes from Pavan K Varma (no relative of mine):
Marriage is an institution which is there to stay in any society. India needs to stand by the values. There is something called sanskar (values) and it is still alive in India though it may have been lost in the metropolises. All gods, at least in Hindu mythology, have consorts.
So if you’re stuck in a bad marriage, hang in there for the sake of your sanskar. If your gods adjusted, so must you.
Earlier, some blasphemy committed by me: We Should Celebrate Rising Divorce Rates.
