Too gentle, face the music......
Niceness is seen as a sign of weakness. when you behave "too gentle" you are definitely taken for a ride. you ought to get to the bottom and then you make a claim. Otherwise, people around you would take advantage of your gullibility. Just like what our "big-brother-next-door" does to us these days. The greatest problem we have today is that we are in complete denial of the problem which is trying to engulf us. Yet,we behave as if there is nothing to worry. Probably, we think ignorance is bliss.

URB..URB. URB.......
The sound may be a unique one. Actually, when we drink coffee (I'm sorry Kaapi) we make this sound. Particularly, when you drink a filter coffee , you hold kaapi tumbler in one hand and the newspaper in the other hand. The situation is indescribable . This URB sound has become a brand of a leading coffee maker which is nothing but BRU (just an ulta).

We are at their mercy
It has become very difficult to find a " good" mason, carpenter, plumber. It is okay they are also a part of our society and they too suffer the price hike. But, it is unreasonable on the part of them to expect too much. In addition, their work does not commensurate with the pay.The quality of work is very low. they just fleece . On the completion of work they jack up the labour price. You would end up paying more than 50% of the agreed price.
First of all, it is very difficult to locate them because they will not answer the call. first phone them,make a personal visit to them , again , phone them . Even then you would not get an affirmative response from them. By this time, you will curse your fate . At this juncture , you would receive a man(not the one after whom you sought his service. You don't have the patience to test his competence you'll accept his service without any second thought) you would thank almighty for his providential intervention at a crucial time.And then you misery starts as I mentioned above in the first paragraph......

not in your lifetime.....
Human life is full of expecting "recognition from others. We live for "certification" . you can see your birth certificate . you can receive your school leaving certificate. The university will give away convocation certificate after a successful completion of your graduation. But, you will not live to see your DEATH CERTIIFICATE which will be received by someone on your behalf.

gone are the days....
There was a time when 4 people used to carry a dead body. No longer they require them. A makeshift maruti van is enough . Even the ambiance of the burial ground has changed. With electrified crematorium the dead body turns into ashes within 20 minutes. everything over. all your desires half-filled desires and your expectations are just powder. to fulfill those half filled desires you again take birth in another woman's womb. This reminds me a famous line from adi sankara song " punnarapi jananam punarapi maranam from the title song " bhaja govndam".
