Marriage Mein Gandhigiri
|
Sweet truth?
Sometimes the truth can be very difficult to digest and calls for diplomacy and timing on our part. The manner in which the truth is presented can certainly affect the manner in which it is taken in by our partners. We can be honest and still be considerate and respectful to the other person. This might not always be possible, especially if the truth is about infidelity. That requires courage (and a long prayer).
The verdict?
My take on the truth in a marriage is the vivid memory of a routine I saw while growing up. My father was a man known for his brutal honesty and dislike for hypocrisy. Every morning, head buried in a newspaper, he told my mother that she looked so beautiful; she could put the angels in heaven to shame.
We all knew, as I'm sure she did, that he didn't even know what she was wearing then; but she'd still ask. Their marriage is stronger every day, probably because with us kids grown up and gone, they have less to argue about... or for her part, lie about!
Gandhiji's verdict?
Truth above all.
I'm not sure he'd be a sympathetic counsellor at all. He would definitely get along with my dad though!
