Frustration

When we try to pass a narrow road, if there is a vehicle blocking our way, we simply try to reverse and go to the more clear road.

But there are people who fight. Why?

I had been in a house in front of which there was a slum. The common water tap was in front of our home. All the ladies (and some men) used to come their to fill their buckets and pots.

Some time or the other, at least one of them used to start some conversation which was derogatory for someone else.

Lo behold! the fight ensues.

The way they used to abuse each other, we had to literally shut our (and our children's) ears.

Why they fight?

May be it is frustration. May be it is their way of pouring out their woes which they face somewhere else.

I don't know. But when I see two people whose vehicles just touch each other on the road, however busy they are, they stop to fight and it may even end up in death in the worst case.

The second most deadly sin is the anger.

Lord SriKrishna in Bhagavadgita, the Song of the Lord, always mentions Anger is very bad. Leave it.

Easy to tell, I tell you, very difficult to practise.
