syro-malabar 

Syro-Malabar Catholics are heavily latinized Oriental Catholics from Kerala, India who consider themselves to be "Roman Catholic". They are the Indian diocese of the Church of the East (East Syriac Rite) that came in full communion with the Holy See of Rome in the 16th century. Syro-Malabarians employ the Liturgy of Ss. Addai and Mari. There are dioceses outside India, such as Chicago (USA), Melbourne (Australia), Great Britain, and Mississauga (Canada). They are primarily of the Malayali ethnic group and speak Malayalam. Although there are a minority of Tamils, Telugus, and North Indians from the various eparchies in Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Karnataka, and northern & western India. Syro-Malabarians share the East Syriac liturgy with the Chaldean Catholics, Oriental Catholics from Iraq.

Power Couple 

A relationship between two people who are equally as cool as each other. They are as individually awesome and fun to be around as they are when they are together.

Neither one depends on the other for their feelings of self worth- they know in their heart that they are just as valuable to the world as the other. Good looking, optimistic, and sparks a light in the world that people recognize that goes beyond a normal relationship.

In a power couple, if one person is flawed, the other person makes up for their weaknesses in strength. Together they are the epitome of what anyone would desire in a relationship. They encourage goodness in the world and make it a better place by being together.
I'm a fan of those two, they are such a power couple, the epitome of what anyone would want in a relationship.

I am envious of them because they are a power couple.
