Some people just cant tolerate your success. They may not necessarily be others but may even be your own. Nevertheless, they will always highlight your deficiencies and try to pull you down. If you are capable they will raise the ghosts of your past. If your past is impeccable they will question your abilities and if they find nothing else, they shall make do by making fun of your looks or appearance. Why? Because your success challenges their status in society and proves their worthlessness. And others? What about them? Are they free to make their own decisions? They arent. These so-called free men cant even think on their own. Their thoughts,beliefs and their definitions are decided by others. They live like sheep, move in flocks, shepherded wherever by their butchers. And in their flock, in their society each one bleats just me, me, me.Dont just believe, understand. The sooner you understand the faster you will get rid of this delusion called love. Just as getting a job is the most important phase in the life of a man, his means of living , his status, marriage, for an Indian woman, is her means of living and her status. Marriage is job for women. This is still the truth of most of the poor and middle class households in India. Society asks a man, his job and a woman, her husband.
