This story moves along a straight line.

But it leaves one exactly where one started.

It makes absolutely circular sense.

It looks like the guy has boxed himself into a corner.

And his wife’s whole life is a circle of a hole!

Perhaps his wife needs to box his ears a bit!

Perhaps she should cut him up into sections!

Or at least make an entry in the organizer:

July 12: Talaq, talaq, talaq….

Oh yesh! Your geometry theorems are more important than petty emotions! It`s entirely upto the person to choose whether he or she wants to act like a caveman and succumb to the clever works of his animal nature, or to organize and discipline himself to lead a balanced and fulfilling life.

But those who have mastered the art of simple geometry can move on to work in the third dimension. They can easily organize other bits and pieces of their everyday life in that third dimensions. That would result in cubes, prisms, spheres, cylinders, and all forms of wonderful shapes. The more good he gets at keeping himself organized, the more complicated his geometry gets. And those who have lived with him would see that complicated labyrinth of carefully juxtaposed three dimensional shapes when he is on his death bed.

This is a very good story and it carries good messages.
