Marry a 'nice' girl from a 'good'(READ: same religion, caste and stinking rich) family, settle down(READ: pay your bills, file your returns, have a 9 to 5 job) have kids(READ: Err...just do your best :P) and your life will be set.
But stray away from any of these 'goals', for whatever reason and by however small a margin and you won't stop hearing about your 'good friend' who did all the things you were 'supposed' to do and is now the poster child for every other person that has 'goals' and is 'career-oriented'.
Life is difficult man! Don't let peer pressure get the best of you :)
Do well, with your sweetheart and your life will be set, is what I believe in :) Sadly, that is one thing, I can't achieve :D

ReplyDeleteOh yes, you can get murderous when the 'good friend' ironically does manage to ace everything!
Nice one! =)
Concentrate on doing one thing well and others tumble out of control. But expectations from society never cease. So we all just end up becoming on of the rats in the rat race we call life.
ReplyDeletewhether we come 1st or 2nd in this race..we'll still remain rats at the end of it...well written...
