Rare are such couples these days who will stay with their partner, come what may. Everybody, no matter what gender, wants an easy cosy life. They do not want to build it together, let alone from the scratch. And they also don’t want to survive difficult weather together. What they do want is already available comfort and wealth. And they always have options ready to choose from if they find things too difficult for them. Together as long as joy and comfort are present. Growing old together is rarity. You will see couples, but what about two of them living as one. Not treating it like a business to have profit or loss from, but considering it as ‘us’, ‘we’, ‘ours’ whatever it is to be faced and lived.

I was placing my toys on table, I happen to place Orangutan in the background of a plane. I may not be able to put it in words the emotions I feel when I try to think about connection between humans and their ancestors (now extinct; and neanderthals) or other apes. This photo where you can see plane in foreground of Orangutan appeared much more than just a random placement of objects to me – I saw our past, from where we have come, from being apelike to inventing and building planes, and now we soar sky and beyond.
