Gals, Love Your Mils

Dear Satchi,

There are two types of people. One is a stress-buster and another is a stress-creator. Stress-busters are mostly animals who provide unconditional love despite all odd behavior from us whereas stress-creators are mostly humans (I hate to say animal qualities) who deliver unique life-experiences to us. Stress-busters try to make us forget the crisis we have in life whereas stress-creators try to create a crisis for us in life. If you are a specialist in crisis management, you need to befriend the stress-creators as they have the ability to convert absolutely a normal situation into a crisis in no time so that you can manage it better.

Dear Satchi,

Knowing you, I think behind all that humor you are trying to decipher the meaning of what you have read! It is crazy how much you read on all these things - NDEs, OBEs etc. I have told you earlier too, all I do is watch super girl repeatedly! Listen to me once and you will not have to offer explanation to your mental well-being, ever .

If I am allowed to quote Bach again - “Every person, all the events of your life are there because you have drawn them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you.” This is a timely and well intended reminder to me as well. So thank you. I don't know why any one has to read puranas and whatsapp forwards when Bach can convey the same so succinctly. - just me thinking like that you know !!!

 

After this many years of promoting him and his ideas!!! Finally!!

 

Satchi, first I thought you were trying to fill th gap created by the absence of Viswa by writing his kind of stuff. Then I realized your poor MIL is the target, You are lucky she doesn't read your threads.

 

Don't quote me on this one as I am hazy whether it was Many Lives, Many Masters in which the author propounds a theory of close-knit incarnations. The people in our lives forever remain constant just that their roles are shuffled in each reincarnated life.

I was intrigued by that delectable conceptualization of rotation in births by constant agents underpinned by the Rawlsian veil of ignorance. I am forced to be nice to you not knowing how you and I will be connected, with dominance or parity, in my next birth.

Today you and I are friends but in the next janma I could be your MIL. However, because in this janma I am your friend, I am leaking a secret to you if you were unfortunate enough to be born as MY daughter in law next. Listen, you ply me with yellow-colored jalebi not that flashy orangy then I would instantly bequeath my bungalow, farm house, five-acre ranch, and all that black money spirited away in Swiss accounts on your name. Dump that ingrate son!

What are friends for if they cannot help each other out whilst they last as friends.

 

Other ladies of IL are in queue for getting MIL like you in other janma. Send us your address we can start bargaining by sending jalebis from today only....

 

I am usually found sulking at the railway stations.
