Chetan Bhagat excerpts... When I was a kid, my Mom cooked food for us. One night in particular when she had made dinner after a long hard days work, Mom placed a plate of subzi and extremely burnt roti in front of my Dad. I was waiting to see if anyone noticed the burnt roti. But Dad just ate his roti and asked me how was my day was at school. I dont remember what I told him that night, but I do remember I heard Mom apologising to Dad for the burnt roti. And Ill never forget what he said: Honey, I love burnt roti. Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy, good night & I asked him if he really liked his roti burnt. He wrapped me in his arms & said: Your momma put in a long hard day at work today and she was really tired. And besides... A burnt roti never hurts anyone but harsh words do! You know beta - life is full of imperfect things... & imperfect people... IM NOT THE BEST & AM HARDLY GOOD AT ANYTHING! I forget birthdays & anniversaries just like everyone else. What Ive learnt over the years is : To Accept Each Others Faults & Choose To Celebrate Relationships Life Is Too Short To Wake Up With Regrets! Love the people who treat you right & have compassion for the ones who dont... !!! ENJOY LIFE NOW !!! It has an expiry date...
