"It was a great start to a great day... I decided to take my bike and ride to office... a man behind me was honking insanely at the Signal... and just as the signal got green he passed by and sweared at me...What is wrong with old people? And moreover that What is wrong with me ???
For the first time in life i felt disgusted, lost patience and then came "F*** off you AssH***!!!"... For the first time i have sweared at a man more than twice my age..."
I was standing at the Crossing and suddenly the phone rang. The call was from the dad of a friend of mine who was worried that his son did not come home yesterday night. Before i could understand what the phone call was about, this guy in his car behind me started to honk as if the signal was green and i am the sole reason for the traffic jam.
Yes, i know that if the signal would have been green then i would have been epicentre of the traffic jam, but still i went to the side "when the signal was still red and teh counter well over 30 seconds", this guy passed by and sweared some words at me that were, First, never accepted by me. Second, Not expected form much an aged man. I dont know what his background was but he looked like a decent old man. His action of unnecessary honking and swearing was something that i could not digest and be patient. I lost all my cool and just sweared back at him with the F word.
It all happened in fractions of seconds and later i was feeling bad and guilty that why did i just sweared back at him. Maybe this guy does not have any patience or could have been from a Very "Well Cultured" Background. I should have known that I am not from such a background. I have strict morals of never abusing elderly people and women, but why did i just do it this time.
I still have no answers to what made be swear back instantly, could be a reason that i cannot take any form of swears or bad words for me, but my retaliation should have been to someone who is of my age or level.
Whatever happened, just happened. But for the Good mood. "The idea and pleasure of riding the bike all the way to office on free road with letting behind all tensions and with no thoughts of work in my mind were whacked."
In that one hour long ride to office, my mind was completely perplexed and baffled with overburdening thoughts of the Old guy. All i was thinking of "How could i just do that?"
Still no answers to it.
What another instance came to my mind was that I work my Roomie/Elder Bro before leaving for office and gave him gyan on his behaviour with the Land lord. Actually we had a scuffle with our landlord. So, I was telling him the same thing that we are from a family that had never taught us to swear or fight with our elders. We should respect women and elders and never loose patience in any adverse situation.
But all that happened just happened and all im still thinking is why?
I still dont know that i was being Hippocratic with my roomie or i just got to realise that my morals are of no use in this world anymore. Im still confounded...
