Not Required To Give Reasons

In our material world you do something and you have to report to so many people.

When you buy a new car you will be asked by a whole load of people how come you bought that car? I could have suggested a better option, I wish you would have told me earlier I would have taken you to my dealer who would have offered you a great discount, if only you would have waited for a few days then they would have the festival offers and so on. Every one thinks that your decision are not worth a cent and that you are wrong in what you did. Some outright tell you that you are an idiot just like your parents or relatives. The same situation arises when you are getting married too. There are people who love the boy and some think that you have got a raw deal. With your qualifications and salary you could have easily landed a great husband! Huh?

Now why do we need to tell everyone everything at all? Is it required to divulge every detail about our life to all and sundry? Anyway who cares for their reaction when you know very well that they are plain jealous of your acquisitions. But we do care so we tell all. And there is the deluge of advices that come our way. No one has asked for them yet they all think it is their birthright to tell us so.

So let us see how we have to continue to have our way and yet get away with plain murder.

Do not tell anyone that you are going to do something which is out of the extraordinary like buying a house for yourself or a car or going on a holiday.

When the deed is done just give them a heads-up about it and behave as if that the decision was based on a lengthy research done by your would be or someone who cannot be told is wrong...like your strict military father. See no one likes to be told they are wrong and especially such people who have dominated your life. So put the gun on their shoulder and fire. Similarly tell this person your mother recommended this decision. Cover you ass before you say all these things.

Sometimes we have to lie through our teeth when we have to say how much the flat cost us. Do that and be happy otherwise there will be people who will never let you live in peace for taking such a wrong decisions in life. Thank God for small mercies your brother and other cousin live abroad. when they come they are sure to give you a lecture on your acquisitions.

So be safe and never divulge anything before you have done it and be patient and let them know only if it required.
