Read how Nicholas and Karen found their love again after 25 years of getting married and going through the thick and thin together.
She looked in the mirror hard and touched her freshly sprouted hair.
Nicholas and Karen thought they knew what love meant until then! Until that moment when they had to fulfil their vows.
He entered the kitchen for the first time in his life. For Karen! He bathed, clothed, cooked, fed, carried and tucked her in bed.
Nicholas fell truly, madly, deeply in love with his wife all over again. Yes, including her bald head! No, Especially her bald head!
Detected with cancer earlier this year, Karen discovered more than just her hair at the end of it. Marking their 25th wedding anniversary today, they read aloud their vows to each other one more time.
´I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health. I will love you and honour you all the days of my life.´

So I got to work on it with clearer intentions and a stronger sense of what I needed for myself, and why.
Many Indian elderly are firm believers in enslaving a daughter-in-law in the name of tradition which is actually a tradition of oppression and not of religious faith.
Albeit, the popular culture has interpreted scriptures as suggesting that Kanyadaan is the supreme form of donation given to someone, the connotation that the word donation alludes to definitely objectifies the girl.
