1. Whoever feels that husbands have a nice time when their wives are away is either unmarried or a lazy person!
 
2. The stove remains hot for at least half-an-hour after you turn it off. Forgetting this lesson will give you some ‘lasting memories'.
 
3. Sweeping the floor is a good exercise for the lower back. It also explains how the wife is able to discover the lost buttons, coins, and miscellaneous trinkets at ease.
 
4. The t-shirts, no matter how comfortable they feel, are supposed to be changed once in, at least, three days - every day, if it is summer. Not learning this will ‘alienate’ you from the people around.
 
5. Cooking is not just another hobby. At times, it is the difference between going to bed with a tummy stuffed with all the open-market junk and a well - or at least safely - fed tummy.
 
6. There is nothing in the world that a man cannot do which his wife can do. Except when it comes to bashing the neighbor women for 10 minutes straight for a transgression they committed 10 months ago, and still manage the most amicable smile when they meet one another.
 
7. It takes more effort to maintain things as they are than it might take to change them.
 
8. Refrigerator and the wardrobe both serve different purposes.
 
9. It takes as much effort to run the house as it takes to run a small organization, except that there are no designations, no promotions, no increments and definitely no retirement when it comes to being the 'housewife'.

10. Bricks, steel, concrete, colors, wood, glass and so many other things make a house. But it is only the companionship of a loving person that can turn it into a home!
