A big shout out to Adlin, I wondered where you were JUST yesterday
Divashni, how is Nivi do we know?
NV: Your explanations are so poetic, peace in silence, I will never forget.
EN: Absolutely right disclosing the fact that she had him draw a prenup will only reflect badly on her. Thats exactly what Manny will conclude "All a ploy to dupe Ranjan and R&B" because they will start believing she is Ms Angel.
Manny will probably think, instead of grabbing the purse from the get go, II crafted a fine plan of saying NO first, causing everyone to insist she take the money. Knowing how educated and shrewd Iyers are believed to be the prenup will seem like something they would do easily
Asma, THANKS YOU for such generous compliments, we are all victims of our circumstances, as I grow older I am able to appreciate that fact more.
Shilpa: ladayiyan to dher saari hain meri jeb mein, you should not be embarrassed to share, every family has a scape goat, every family has someone that is wealthy, there are underdogs and people with evil designs everywhere. Kaise bacha jaaye? You are totally right. I have this debate with my friend a loved, she moved out of town now. "OUR GENERATION FEELS the most and cares the most for parents, the one above us, werent allowed to, My Mom couldnt do much for her family... emotionally physically or financially. Our kids will NOT. I rationalize it based on where I live. US ke paani ka asar. U know saal mein do baar aayenge 4 din ke liye. We cannot expect to go move in with our kids when we turn 70 or 80. JUST CANT. Woh din gaye. Why is everyone lamenting the rise of nursing homes if it werent true? batao? If people wanted to or could care would there be such a sharp increase in every city?
Shevane, R&B is rigid in many ways in his opinions, he doesnt want to deal with sorting through family politics and creating "one big happy family" hes happy where he is at and wants to keep it that way. That doesnt make him a bad guy, you are absolutely right.
I bet most of So Sy readers do as much as I do or more, I am not special in any way yaar, there are many that know and do things I have no clue about. I could have done tremendous things at work 10 years ago, that train has left the station, I dont drink and waste myself over it...
signing up to help that woman? I think each and everyone of us would have done that. I find it extremely hard to say NO. Thats my biggest failing I feel. I will say yes to anything to any body. I always assume people mean well. I never suspect foul play until I am robbed or tricked, ek certain naivety hai mujhme thats almost ridiculous... even my 7 year old is not like me. God makes them smarter not naiver. What could I have said ? Sorry I dont know? I shouldnt be? Maybe!! But I felt she is 92, her daughter lives out of state, she survives because of friends and acquaintances and medical workers. Add a stranger to the mix, maine socha
Would her daughter do something for me if I am in a bind? Probably not!!! But thats her, and this is me... Too old to change I guess... every time I think I should not offer such help in future, I end up doing it anyway... only good comes out of it so I guess its been OK thus far
