#166. The two types!
Thinking about the two types of people who serve and who get served,
I discovered a thing or two.
Usually the good looking and the dull witted get served.
The ordinary looking and brainy people serve them.
Should it not be the other way round???
It should be!!! But it is not so!!!
But good looking people manage to use their looks to their advantage.
If they are also dull witted, all the more reason
why they should not be entrusted with any important task!
So it comes to the brainy people who willingly take up the challenge
of the added tasks and end up serving others for life!
#167. “The joy of motherhood”
“The joy of motherhood” as defined by my father is
“when the children go to sleep or take nap”
But since the children never take a nap together
and one always wakes up as the other starts a nap
the corrected definition should become
“when all the children take a nap at the same time!!!
In the Happy Nap Land…
Enter child number one… exist child number two!!!
#167. Old is Gold!
In the olden days women used to get up early before the household wakes up
and take a bath and finish as many chores as possible before the babies woke up
and started demanding their time, energy and attention.
Here in the West, the mothers sleep as long as the babies sleep (if possible for longer too!)
The whole household wakes up at the same time and a much later hour.
All the chores are to be done by everyone at the same time.
They have to share the bathrooms and other facilities in the short time available.
They will rather do this everyday than think up of getting out of bed a little early
and doing things more leisurely. WHY???
#169.The two extremes!!!
It is like the worker ants and bees which have no time
for merry making but have to work work and work
and the king and queen whose full time business is
producing eggs all day long!
If they stop the production they will be devoured
by their loyal subjects and replaced by a new king and queen.
#170. Wealth.
Children are called Mazhalaich chelvam ….another form of wealth!
So there must be a Law of Conservation of Wealth.
The total wealth (in all its forms) must be equal for every person.
God is not partial.
So he gives children who have no money and the other way.
He also give a lot of worries and diseases to the rich so that
they will have to part with at least a part of their wealth!
Hence the word “rich man’s diseases”.
