He said...She said....

One of my favorite songs starts off like:

Kuch To Log Kahenge
Logon Ka Kaam Hai Kehna
Chhodo Bekaar Ki Baaton Mein
Kahin Beet Na Jaaye Raina

This song is from the film "Amar Prem", sung by Kishore Kumar and penned by Anand Bakshi. It simple means:

People will always say something
This is people's occupation
Let go of this useless talk
Else this night will pass

Not just this night, our entire lives pass by thinking of what others think about us. We give undue importance to society. Why should society decide what is right and wrong? Lay the rules yourself and live by them. Do not force others to abide by your rules. And there is no need to follow other people's rules unless they really care about you.

We come alone to this world and will die alone ....so live your life as you wish, and just remember that at the end of this life, the only person you have to answer to is God!

Dear Indhu,

We came alone ...and we will go alone..But, unfortunately, we cannot LIVE alone. That is where codes and legislation come in...as far as your individual code is within the framework of the societal code, it is fine. Yes, never ever be upset by the actions and words of others as far as you know that you are on the right path and follow the code...I have experienced people making comments to upset me and put me off. You cannot stop them; but you can stop listening to them.

Love

Appa
