On a scale of 1 -10, I would consider myself score maybe 8, if you ask me how patient I am. Maybe bordering on to 9 if you take the subset of the Indian population. Thankfully,over the past 3 decades I have learnt to control my once fiery temper and fidgety mind to what I would now label serene, calm, somewhat still-irritable-but-stable and a little laid back.
However certain things in life, however silly they may sound, still do tick me off like-
1. Mosquitoes (especially those which start buzzing after u turned off the lights)
2. Child labour and unwarranted beating of children
3. Indians never able to queue for anything
4. Auto drivers cramping the roads trying to overtake other vehicles when it least matters
5. People lighting a cigarette in my house without taking prior permission
6. The sight of all Indian passengers rising up from their seats as soon as the plane touch down ( is it too much for them to comprehend that we all will be waiting together for luggage to arrive anyway)
7. Cruelty to animals
8. Those who treat the whole world as a big dustbin
9. The ever increasing cost of chicken biryani (or the shrinking serving portion)
10. People who think that elevator buttons have a “hurry” sensor which responds to excessive and rapid pressing
Hey I’m not that gloomy or “recess”-ed. Many things do make me happy as I have already posted and will do again. Til then, happy thanksgiving!
