Just felt a pain in my heart. Reason? It all started from our mess. Yeah, lot of things these days start from there. But this one really had an impact. Went there for dinner with friends. Food quality was bad as usual. Rotis were hard and burnt. I din’t feel like eating them. But the mess guy without asking me whether I wanted them or not, put them in my plate. I din’t bother much. Took some rice and had my dinner with them and threw away those Rotis. Just then, I saw a man come inside the mess. He looked like one of the construction workers. He went to the counter, gave 2 or 3 coins to the manager and walked away with 4 rotis in hand with nothing else to eat. As he walked out of the mess door, he started eating those plain Rotis and while doing so, went out of sight.
I felt really ashamed ! What had I done just now? We have got our parents’ resources and we are wasting them like anything. 50 bucks is the normal expenditure per day for me, even though almost all our expenses have already been paid. Parties and things count seperate. For some, it would be even higher. I told this incident to Nrapesh. His reaction was that even if I hadn’t thrown those Rotis, how would I have been able to help him? Well, he seems right too. But I am just not able to accept it. Don’t know why ! But something about this incident is making me really upset. It feels like we have developed the habit of complaining. We haven’t got this, we haven’t got that. But we never think about what we have got. We just see what is missing. Shit man, where are we going?
P.S. Never felt like this in my whole life. Don’t know either how long the impact is going to be.
