Django is like a marriage. You have to commit fully to get the most out of it. You have to work through the (perceived) suboptimal parts to find a compromise that such that the whole system does not fall down.

And with enough time you come to realize there are certain things that are out of scope for the current codebase. Just as there are things that are out of scope for the current marriage.

hahaha - I dont know...I should stop here. This metaphor is stretching thin
