I have been on the bed for the last 3 days. My back has given up on me at last and has gone on a strike; the punishment bestowed on me for ignoring the signals of trouble for quite sometimes now. I have been taught a lesson.
It made me wondering. How nice it would be to replicate this act of vengeance in our personal life! ‘You don’t listen to me! Now see!!’ types. Lols and some more lols. Hmmn. I am already day dreaming.
There will be plenty of things (read people!) on which I will love to use this tit-for-tat thing, just for fun, and to see how they cope up with them. It will be real fun.
It will also be a reminder that people cannot be taken for granted, whatever be the relation. Value them and you get yourself respected in return. Treat them bad, and God save your soul.
What do you think a world would be like if this is practiced? Of course, I am not talking about the Osama & Bush kind of conflict. I am merely suggesting a scenario of tit-for-tat in our daily domestic life. Will it be more selfish life than now? Or, will it create a sense of fear and loss to stimulate better relationship management? I am not sure. Any takers?
