THE FALLACY THAT NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED AT MY END!
- “Last week, I expected a friend of mine do a job for me but he just left it in the middle and.........
- A fortnight ago, the next door neighbor who promised to help me out in an issue simply retreated in the last minute and..........
- “And this day too I've a doubt what exactly a distant relative of mine had done in respect of a small job of mine at his place and..........
Thus was complaining a man of mid forties to an elderly well-wisher when the man’s elder son of 16 came into the room.. Seeing him the dad instantly said,
”Sorry, Sir for the interruption.. OK! Please tell me now, why the behaviors of the so called these friends, relatives and neighbors are like this?”
The elderly smiled and said,
“My dear! You yourself just now brought out the answers for your question!”
“I didn't understand!”
“Dear! In life, there are only 3 ways of getting all my works done Viz.,
- “Dear, forgot to tell you.. I need to go out personally tomorrow to complete one of the long time pending works..
- You go now to.......... and get me the required info needed tomorrow..
- On the way, find out why the shop man had not yet delivered our monthly groceries even though he collected the money in advance!”
”Sorry, Sir for the interruption.. OK! Please tell me now, why the behaviors of the so called these friends, relatives and neighbors are like this?”
The elderly smiled and said,
“My dear! You yourself just now brought out the answers for your question!”
“I didn't understand!”
“Dear! In life, there are only 3 ways of getting all my works done Viz.,
- Doing them myself,
- Getting them done through my man who loves me without an exception or
- Pay and get them done where I can't do or the works need an expertise!
Except for such rare situations, it's ever a sin with me if I stop doing my works and expect others to help me therein!

Its always best to do the jobs yourself and always good to expect nothing from others except those who really have deep feelings for you.You grow up more when you face the obstacles yourself and the tough times of life teaches us who genuinely cares for us.
