The 'Thumb' rule

I am not a great lover of pattimandrams or debate programmes but a programme like Neeya Naana tilts me sometimes and I did watch one good episode of NN yesterday. There's one episode that I loved much - Mothers & Daughters. And this latest one is about siblings on how they were/are before/after marriage. The youngest side of siblings quoted that the old ones just change 'topsy turvy' and dont look at their family like they did before in terms of finance, relationship, priorities etc., The oldest side of siblings said that they attain maturity after marriage and gets involved with someone with whom they are going to spend their entire life with, which comes as their preference over others. It was a healthy conversation between both sides and most of the instances that people talked looked so realistic. I am not on one side in particular would be a very diplomatic answer if someone asks me to take a side and talk about it :) Although I would end up agreeing with few things from the younger side like distance in relationship between siblings that comes after marriage life, the expectations and the cute little fights and advices which stands like a 'moodiya thirai' and sounds like that happened in the last jenma, I would definitely take a place on the older side to talk about it. As every other elder one in that arena told, it's the maturity and the preference that changes which at sometimes lead to emotional drama and yearn for those little things like 'You should not take my shirt' or 'the pillow fights' :)

I enjoyed the show and the thumb rule is 'Whatever changes in life, changes will never change and life goes on and on'.
