In India, the couple observe 50th anniversary of their wedding with a lots of religious festivities and it is almost like a remarriage at this age. It is attended by children, grand children, great grand children, sometimes the parents of the couple who have reached 50 years of their fruitful marriage. This is really a grand celebration. My cousin sister is celebration her 50th year of wedding and her husband incidently is 70 and there are some special prayers for him too.

This event of my cousin sister and her husband will be held at Bangalore and she is expecting 2000 nearest and dearest relatives to attend the programme. A day long celebration includes giving of gifts to all the nearest and dearest (most silver articles), priests who perform prayers will be given gifts in the form of gold. The expenditure on this is likely to be $1,00,000. This programme will be the talk for a week among the community.

i know a lot of people... my parents for example. my relatives and a couple of my friend's parents. although live-in arrangements are beginning to take root here in my country, a lot of people still prefer to get married and stay together.

Yes my mom and dad they've been married for almost 30years. And the love for each other was really peaceful. Its nice to know that they stick together until when they get older. That's what you call love life.

My parents have been married for 42 years. I realize it's not been an easy 42 years for them, especially now that I am an adult and I am witness to the dynamics of their relationship. But in spite their flaws and faults, I see a basic caring for each other and I guess this is what has sustained them throughout their married life.
