Things that I should be ashamed of:-

I have been thinking. Well that’s what I do when I am doing nothing else (and its most of the time really).

What are the things that I am really ashamed of having done and will never do again?

Cheat in my exams…well I am not all that ashamed of it in the first place…so the second part does not arise.

The lies I told to my parents/family? Hey get real…are you joking….consider the lies I did not tell. Ashamed, no way!

Picking on those weaker than me? Offcourse not, that’s what every one does. In History books they call it war.

Infidelity, well I have not yet got the opportunity and when I do, believe me that will be a proud moment for me.

Being dishonest? Now that’s a tough one….but considering that we have already got lies and infidelity out of the way… that takes away most of the dishonesty part with it, does it not? I think it does.

This confessional isn’t working; let’s try to turn it around (it is at this point that the lawyer will dramatically turn to the Judge and say, “Mi-lord, please note my client’s sincerity”).

I have smoked and drank at an early age. Well, considering the age limit has been coming down every few years, maybe I was just a little ahead of my time (and history judges such people very kindly).

I have beaten up others. But then, I have got beaten up a lot more, so it should cancel itself out and there’s no reason for me to be ashamed of it.

So, I guess I can proudly stand up and say that I have done nothing that I am ashamed of, or will not do it again.

But hang on…. I do not need such a lengthy write up….let see, what are the things I cannot tell my mom or my child,… do I see the list forming....unfortunately yes…and its growing.

Let’s get up and do something for a change. This thinking stuff puts me to shame.
