One day I don't think you have, like, a 30 ft ladder available anywhere unless you custom make it or something, which again, sounds very ridiculous even when I think about it. And don't get me started on the lighting that they've done for this house. So the article says that the lights inside the Dome and the lighting outside is done in such a way that the house glows in the dark, just like the real targe. Wow. How romantic. Right

Of course I'm sure they are super rich, that they don't have to clean their rooms for sure. But the one question that came in my mind and is still popular in my mind, how are people so damaged rich? What does he even do for a living

Oh, my God. So the opulence to me trumps the romance. I mean, we could do the smallest things for someone to show our love, and it could reach deep into their hearts. And I just feel like this is completely crazy. If I had that kind of money, I'd want to do great things with it, including show my love to people I love, but who's going to live in this place Besides them?

I remember seeing this news a while ago, and I thought, do they realize that Taj Mahal is a mausoleum? It's a burial place that the original King built for his wife. Why would anybody want a home, home that represents a burial place or a tomb? I don't know. I understand. Everyone has their own thing going on, but I personally think it would be a little weird

Seems more like a publicity stunt to me. You know, more than a doting husband's gesture. And think that this is a borrowed idea in the first place. Right? And not to mention, as Shaz said, it's a burial place. Why would you even want to replicate something like that anyway, each to his own
Metaphorically speaking. Shaz, what you said about the Muslim part, I think can be interpreted like this. This guy probably is smothering his wife with so much of his love that his home indeed resembles and actually is a sort of a mausoleum for her crazy thought. But yeah, it's super weird. It's
Probably the reason why we find it hard to relate to this over the top kind of gesture by this person could be because while we all know the Taj Mahal to be a symbol of one man's love for his wife, built centuries ago, the times that we are in are so disconnected and so different from what it was back then that we are unable to kind of relate to this sort of display of what can I say, a sense of money, privilege, entitlement

So this is the weirdest part that first came to my mind when I even saw the picture and then moving on in India, people know how much poverty strike in the country is. Why are they going on spending so much spending millions, literally millions on building a grave? Like, I don't know even how people live in those homes that resembles a thousand. It's just getting weirder. And weirder. People should have a bad ear

Maybe not as great as he can, but you can. So don't let that get you down anyway. So like I say, the important part of what I had to say was about the Taj Mahal just being beautiful architecture to people who don't really know it for what it is. I mean, like, every time you see it, it says what it is at the bottom. But it doesn't come across that way
