on comparison

…contd…..

He always was like that, only thing is he never got an opportunity to express that nature of his. And many times, we surprise ourselves by our behaviour.  This is because, we’ve never understood ourselves truly! But, smartly we push the blame on to the situation and circumstances and then coolly declare ‘ I am not like that. But, I had no choice but to act in such a way’. By justifying our actions and decisions, we think we’ve saved our ‘image’ of being ‘good person’ but we forget even if it is done, we are what we are – not what we are projecting. So sad!

‘I don’t drink or smoke and come home straight from office by 6 pm. I am such a good husband, yet why do I suffer with such a bad wife who doesn’t even fold clothes daily’.

Just look at this complain. It’s wrong, illogical and senseless from the word go.

a.he is saying he is ‘good husband’ because he doesn’t smoke or drink? So, doesn’t buffalo and even it comes home at 6 pm from the fields. Does it become good husband because of that. If he doesn’t have a ‘wrong habit’ then it means his health would not be affected because of that. But, that doesn’t make him good husband. Coming to that point, even his wife doesn’t smoke or drink. Then, by that virtue even she becomes ‘good wife’. Why he doesn’t allot marks to her for the same reason. If you’ve to compare habits then compare on the same level and also on all levels.
