God disposes! Never felt the truth more keenly than today. My emotions seem to be like this year's Monsoon; not at all following the protocol. Unfortunately, I'm only a mute spectator as usual. Sometimes I remember what Sir had told me once - that I'm like a spring and I bounce back easily. Hope I can, always.
Went shopping with V over the weekend. It had been such a long time since we two went out together. Of course my son accompanied us and got what he wanted - both to and fro by bus. My mother had requested him to let us sisters sit together in the bus so that we could talk and he had agreed. But when we got into the bus, V let him sit next to me and sat next to a middle-aged man right behind us. After a while, my son remembered my mother's words, got up and asked V to sit next to me. She didn't know the background so she was like 'no, it's alright' etc when the guy next to her got confused too. He thought my son was being 'protective' to V and started saying, "it's alright, she's like my sister, don't worry" !!! My son didn't get head or tail of what he was saying and I, who was the only one to understand everything couldn't help laughing out loud.
Reminds me of something. One of my lunchmates is getting married this weekend and a large contingent is planning to attend, mostly her batchmates in the company. They asked me to accompany them and I said let's see. Then they called my boss and he asked who all were going. The immediate reaction from one of the girls was "all of us youngsters". Then she bit her tongue and said "most of us are going" and we all laughed it off. Now I'm almost a decade older than these girls and my boss even more but surely that statement pinched us for a second.
If only our men were to learn their manners well, our roads would be much safer and cleaner to walk on. They spit so indiscriminately that it's disgusting and of course, unhealthy. Why don't the idiots just swallow it off? This reminds of my visit to BBMP office the other day to complain about the garbage pile round the corner. The guy was evasive at first saying it was but natural(!!!) and all but once I talked about diseases, assured me that it would be cleared within a day or two. It's been a week since and I guess I have to visit the office again.
