At first I was so furious and all set to leave home, but Dadi ma and Ishaan's father tried to calm me down and convince me to stay. The next day Radha Bua spoke to me and requested that I don't leave home. I was touched by everyone's concern for me. Later, Dadi ma told me a little bit about Radha bhua's past, but I still don't know what the whole story is.
Dear readers, if you have ever experienced a situation such as this, you would have also learnt something from it. Here are some tips that I would like to share with you all based on my recent experience.
Respect other people's feelings: The big take away for me from this whole episode is to respect other people's feelings. Although I tried to do something nice for Radha bua and Deepak, I did not pause to think how they might feel about it. When I'm asked not to interfere in someone else's personal matter, I should have stayed out of it. I am someone who does not really think about the consequences of my actions, but after this experience, I will make sure to think through every decision of mine.
Be calm and patient: It is very important to maintain your calm in such an intense situation. It will help you to think clearly and will prevent you from making rash decisions or hurtful comments that you are most likely to regret later.
Give the other person the benefit of doubt: Don't always assume that the other person is at fault. Do give them a chance to explain their actions.
Do write in to me at suhana@starplus.in with your tips and suggestions based on your experiences. I would love to hear from you.
Now that the unpleasant episode is behind us let me tell you all about the special guest who arrived unannounced at our house yesterday. At first we were all worried that it was a contractor who has come to demolish our house, but later on he revealed his true identity and guess who it was? None other than our favourite actor Akshay Kumar. It was very nice to have him amidst us and he really enjoyed spending time with our family and was totally impressed by the bond among the family members.
I will write to you all again next week and hopefully by then the mystery behind Dada ji's obituary is solved. Meanwhile, do write in to me with your suggestions/messages and also, do recommend ways through which I can bring Radha bua closer to Deepak. E-mail me at suhana@starplus.in. Help me get to know you better by leaving your name, age and city where you reside in. I would love to hear from you!
