There is a death clause somewhere in the age old scripture that states that if the planet mars is at the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house in the kundali then the person she/he marry will die prematurely. This is a facsinating topic and I found that this clause has broken more hearts and marriages than anything in the world (precisely India).

Cooking Is A Basic Life Skill
I saw a post today on LinkedIn about the rebellious lady who didn't learn cooking because somehow (in her reality) cooking is only expected from the female gender.

Sometimes I like to sit in front of my computer and just think about my life. What am I doing? Why am I doing it? What's my direction? And to answer all these questions, I look back in time.
