Love Marriages.Society's death toll??

Love marriages have always been frowned upon in society. They were deemed to be unorthodox and an unnecessary inclusion to our society. The recent trends of increasing divorce rates and rising social problems have been blamed upon nuclear families. Critics conveniently insist that the root cause of all this are love marriages.

Nuclear families, supposedly a result of the growing number of love marriages, deny children the love and care of their grandparents which is essential especially in families where both the parents work. Solitude is the stage where a child will yearn for attention and thus involve himself/herself in unwanted activities in the attempt to be noticed.

A divorce in a family may result in a child being brought up by just one parent. In most cases the parent tries to make up for the absence of the other by showering extra care and concern, which may bring about a complacent attitude in the child. The absence of the other parent will also make an impact on the child’s mentality. Such children in some situations tend to feel like outcasts in society and take rash decisions.

Yet the above mentioned factors do not simply justify the argument that love marriages should be abandoned. This is due to the fact that even arranged marriages have had similar results. The statement that most love marriages end up in divorce is more of a concocted fact than completely true. Divorce is a product of the way of life today rather than that of love marriages. It is without doubt the lifestyle of today’s working man and woman that determines their marital life for the better or the worse.

Nitro Rocket!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have something called a laboratory session in college every afternoon where we sit and do nothing but chat, play hollywood etc. I decided to make better use of my time and came up with a little creation. Here is a diagramatic explanation of my hopeless design.

This design was based on a particular green coloured saffire which lurks in da jungles of Kanuvai and is driven mostly by another mysterious jungle occupant..... The purpose of this design was to provide respite from the traffic woes this particular mysterious jungle occupant faces on a daily basis.. !!!!!!!! :P
