My Experiments with Frankness

It there is one trait of mine that establishes my uniqueness, that’s Frankness…, bluntness…, outspokenness. Often I have felt, being a veteran (when I comes to being outspoken), I am one of those very few, who has the right to write or comment about this. This has tendency of mine influenced a lot of things in my life… both good and bad… Its this attributes of mine that makes people think I am egotistical, overconfident, at times stupid, selfish, heartless, merciless, an asshole... Blah... Blah… Blah...

I sincerely don’t understand when things can put in simple and succinct manner, why people have to be use lengthy and boring. If you want to call some friend to your place, “COME HERE” is any day better than writing some application letter requesting him or her to come… This by no measure means any disrespect or disregard to that person.

Another big thing, when you are bold enough to tell a person, that he is wrong, its always taken I the wrong sense. I have always believed there only one trait that connects all Indians, that’s SYCOPHANCY. We Indian are used only to hear sweet things about themselves. People don’t understand, it is always better to be receptive while going wrong than wait for a disaster to happen. It hurts the most when comments are not received well even by near and dear ones. Especially when they think this is dome to de-motivate them or to hurt them. The intend is only with tell the fault to them rather than some one anonymous guy telling.

Well… I have mostly faced the wrath of people around me due to trait… have lost good friends…Probably, telling that I have screwed up whole of my social life, wont be an understatement either... When I ponder over the question of whether I regret over this trait of mine… I probably I don’t find a conclusive answer to this question… And whether I plan to reduce my levels of frankness… I remain to be the same with lots of optimism to have many friends and lot of people around me who are mature enough to understand that what is said is only for there good.(might not sound great to ears but certainly good for them).
