An Indian Wedding

So stereo-typed we are,even to this day. Love marriages are something that sound oh-so-pretty as long as your immediate relatives aren't involved.

A cousin got married recently and by the look of things, the family is gonna talk about it for a long time now. Yes, her's was a love-marriage.

What bollywood-ish drama went on in the family! Convincing the parents, putting up with these dirty looks thrown around by relatives who I did not know exist. Seriously, there was no need to create such a huge issue out of nothing!So what if she selected her own groom? What's wrong in that? SHE will be the one living with him, so why do people have a problem with that? Why can't they just respect her decision and save everyone the drama? Shallow-ness.

I'm for it if there is a campaign!Mostly people don't want their children to be the first ones to break the tradition!What they don't understand is they are being a spoilsport of ebullience!
