That’s a funny tradition indeed. So, what if the groom is stingy and won’t give money in exchange for giving back his shoes?
I have read and saw on TV Indian weddings and they are really lenghty cermonies and rituals, though very enjoyable to attend actually.
And it seems it involves a lot of money, like the dowry? I think if one is poor, then can’t he marry a girl in a simple ceremony?
Here if the couple would want to economize, they just get married civilly. At least they will only have the parents and godparents and closest family to feed after that for a celebration.
Here too, getting married is also expensive now, if the bride wants a big wedding. So impractical.
My hubby and I got married in a simple church rites. Only about 50 people including the entourage were present at the church and at the reception. But at least, after the wedding, we already have a refrigerator, sala set, cooking utensils and gadgets and TV.
Hubby and I are both practical persons. 🙂

I am good with cashless money , like using the debit card. At least with the debit card you are still cautious in using it, because if it doesn’t have a balance in there, you cannot use it.
But not with a credit card, wherein you are given a purchasing power so big, that if you keep using it, you will be in deep water. It will have a big interest and would keep getting interest when you pay in installment or the lite scheme.
Nowadays, here in the Philippines, people are already so much into debt because of the credit cards. Sad, that these people are now being harassed by the credit collectors of being sued for not paying the entire amount including the big interest, once they skip paying the monthly lite payment.
Debit card , yes to me .

When I registered at BlogJob at the invitation of a friend online, it didn’t register me. Instead it gave me a notification that it cannot accept new members anymore. After about a month, I was told that it quit paying.
But like you said, you have a blog there still. And i Suppose it still earns from exposure from viewers but not from BlogJob anymore.
Someone said that it will be back soon into an earning site. I don’t think I am interested anymore though.

I don’t think the BlogJob that used to exist will ever come back. I’m not sure what the owners plan but I do hope they give us notice and not shut down without a warning.

I searched for that site when many online writers were talking about it, but I did not register. Please update us when it becomes lively again.

It’s May 12, 2017 and I don’t see any newly registered members.

Children should be taught not to lie. It is the parent’s role to be good models; show them that it is always good to be honest. White lies are sometimes acceptable and it is good to protect the child or the family; but there are lies which should really be stopped. As they say, a liar is comparable to a thief!

Agree with you as a thumb rule children in the first place should not be taught to lie and they should be told to be honest. I have seen many children tell white lies which I accept as they are being done in a mature way not to cause trouble to someone they like or respect and as it does not do any damage. Children start lying as they are in the age group of three to five once they start meeting and mingling with other children who are their peers.
Lying is not a good thing as it build up negative emotions in the person who is indulging in it. One more thing is one lie leads to another and the list goes on and one until the day the bitter truth is out the the individual or the child has been lying all the time. In the case of adults they lose confidence of the society and in the workplace. In the case of children it becomes to give trust him after the dose he has given the parents once. In both the cases they are not trustworthy after the event. Even if we would want to give one more chance we will always have a nagging doubt. Thanks for the input.

Road rage happens anywhere, with the busy, congested roads where motorists all wanted to reach their destinations in an instant. What you mentioned embodied all the things that a driver needs to keep in mind while he is on the road; for his safety, for other’s safety, and for his family.

Of late this problem has increased manifold in India. Some of the problems which were not there but have now started to happen more in India are parents giving keys of vehicles in the hands of children who are less than sixteen years old. Many people purchasing motorcycles which run very fast especially youngsters. People buying cars and vehicles more as they do not have a proper public transport system as the systems are not able to catch up with the increase in the population on time.
One family buying too many two and four wheeler’s as loans are easily available compared to what they where earlier. People not having the patience to wait and drive slow and follow rules even though the pace of traffic speed permitted is only 40 kilometers in the cities. Many accidents taking place on the highways. On a trip when I traveled around more than 500 kilometers I saw six to seven serious accidents where majority of the people have passed away. These people do not realize that driving on city roads and driving on a highway are completely different. Thanks for the feedback.
