PERFECTIONISM
The society
expects perfection in EVERYTHING. Not only in his home, one expects perfection
in neighbourhood too. Now that’s
something wrong. There’s no wrong in being fastidious in the things you buy.
When you expect perfection in people, they simply avoid you.
When I say
am interested in writing short poems, they simply ask “Oh! That’s nice! Common
tell me a poem on “ME”!!”
Does every
famous poet have the skill to write instantaneously?
When people
don’t know ANYTHING about something, they simply relate it to what they merely
know about some other thing.
Here it
goes!
When I say
am doing B.Tech Food Process Engineering, people hardly understand. I waste my
time thinking how I could describe my course of study in simple terms. I tell
them about dairy technology, bakery and few popular brands of processed
products.
They just
reply, “Oh! So you’re doing catering! Say so!” or
“Hotel
Management? Tell me in simple words na!” These ones are just bad.
Still Worse
replies are there. “Why take such a course? Dint you get an engineering seat in
the local college at least?”
P.S : Dear
friends, please stop caring to reply these dumbos!
The evilest
question that the today’s college students face is “Have you been placed in the
campus interview?”
When the
answer is NO, then comes the next life threatening question. As if they really
care, “Oh that’s bad! Your parents have invested so much money educating you.
Don’t spoil their name.”
Even if
your mom and dad had some faith that our son would seek a job and prosper,
they’d lose hope hearing such words. You’d look like a dumb idiot in front of
those unworthy aunts whenever you meet them at occasions. This is why majority
teens avoid coming to family functions these days.
Stop acting
like you care for our family.
I
appreciate your son was the state rank holder, studied in the MSU and was
placed in the best organization with a lakh monthly salary and is perfect to
the core.
I cannot
meet your standards. Stop now you big ladies to expect perfection out of
everything.
And your
standard of perfection is the ultimate level of human stupidity.
