On a road less travelled

At lunch today with the ladies, S remarked that this whole wedding, romance and relationship was ve-ry unconventional and she was amazed at how we managed to live in conservative ole amchi Pune and lead such an exciting life. Hmmm.... It got me thinking. To be really honest, we just grew into this 'relationship' and it seemed to evolve on it's own into something free spirited and wonderful. Mostly, I think we flouted all convention, made exceptions to all the norms and I guess people just grew WEARY of not accepting us. And we have been blessed, blessed with supportive, caring, generous and resilient friends who have always been there for us. Which reinforces my belief that the truth does set you free. When you have nothing to hide, you are free to truly live your life. And looking around, there are so many of us everywhere, defying the rules, carving our own niches and forcing the world to make space for us as we are.
