There is more of good nature than of good sense at the bottom of most marriages.

awaken us to sleep. Then making him God, we establish such a religion around
him that we don't face any obstacle in perpetrating the violence, jealousy, partiality,
lies, cheating, fraud or pretence as we desire; and simultaneously adhering to
few hypocrisies, also remain proud of being religious.
-Deep Trivedi

Feelings come and go like clouds in a windy sky. Conscious breathing is my anchor.
