Once X
asked Y, "What is the secret behind your happy
married life?"
Y said,
"You should share responsibilities with due love and
respect to each other. Then absolutely there will be no problems."
X asked,
"Can you explain?"
Y said,
"In my house, I take decisions on bigger issues where
as my wife decides on smaller issues. We do not interfere
in each other's decisions."
Still not convinced, X asked Y "Give
me some examples"
Y said,
"Smaller issues like which car we should buy, how much
amount to save, when to visit home town, which Sofa, air conditioner,
refrigerator to buy, monthly expenses, whether to keep a maid
or not etc are decided by my wife. I just agree to it"
X asked,
"Then what is your role?"
Y said,
"My decisions are only for very big issues. Like whether
America should attack Iraq, whether Britain should lift sanction
over Zimbabwe, whether to widen African economy, whether Sachin
Tendulkar should retire etc. Do you know one thing, my wife
NEVER objects to any of these". |
