Below are few things that people have told me and few things I faced.
- My father told me that I am not selling in the marriage market. I was hurt.
- My mother told me that my baby is fair and beautiful. I was thankful.
- My mother in law asked me if “your baby will darken”. I told her that I would inform my child her remarks later in future.
Isn’t it better to reply back at that moment, than to repay back later? Why’s it that people are comparing? My paternal grandpa used to depreciate my working sick mom as his daughters were not working. My aunt visited my home and complained my cupboards are not matching when she did not have proper cupboards. My uncle told me that had my TV been bigger then it would be nicer.
Why’s it that except the mother, everyone else is critical? Will the mother too become critical? Are we still in Jungles, fighting for survival?
People say a lot of things. It’s better to flush the bad/good stuff out of our minds by replying back then and there itself.
Eff off, “Love for hate”, it should be “Love for love and hate for hate”. Peaceful mind is the ultimate treasure.
