My friend Ron and his wife Jenny form a
fantastic happy couple. I had always wondered about the secret behind their
ever so charming relationship. One day casually, I asked him "What is the
secret behind your happy married life?"
"Can
you explain?" I asked.
Ron
briefs it out: "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, I asked Ron: "Give me
some examples"
Ron
elaborates "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, which channel on TV we
should watch right now etc are decided by my wife. I just agree to it"
With
a confused smile on my face: "Then what is your role?"
"Well!"
says Ron "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".
