A title i borrowed from the book Five Point Someone by Chetan Bhagat. it sums up most of what i believe in. Its funny how words and pictures sometime reveal more than the people themselves!

Mothers and daughters - philosophical

...If any gal stay outside home for a long time...it accounts for her mom's thunderbolts and cloudbursts (on her head). After all, mothers have to worry about their daughters not working in the house and wasting their time roaming outside(may b with their bfs heee). all mothers think that daughters wastes the precious time they could spend (which the daughters invariably read as "waste") keeping their rooms clean, learning to cook (for their worse better halves) and of course, by studying (to find a better half for whom they eventually have to cook). I do not know which one is done to get the other. The education to get the better half, the better half to get the cooking (eventually), or the education for cooking?

Murphy is so right when he says, "Mothers only offer advice on two occasions: when you want it and when you don't..."

Never mind mothers and daughters... because in my opinion, mothers and daughters can and will do whatever they want, whenever they want and however they want. We guys (and men) will usually say- a mother has a beautiful, mysterious and strange aura around her, but then that comes only because of the fact that no matter how hard a son tries, he cannot understand his mother better than she understands him. And then an equal and opposite reason lies behind the thunderbolts and cloudbursts between the mother and the daughter. A mother can never understand a daughter better than the daughter understands her mother. Feels strange? But that is true. A daughter actually understands her mother better than anyone else. And the "anyone", oddly enough, also encompasses the grandmother!
