A friend of mine sarcastically said, "I heard that you have changed a lot Nimish nowadays!"
I said, "No my dear friend! I have only stopped living up to everyone's expectations. Also, I have started to say "No" for those things which I think are exploiting my self-respect. I have started rejecting the things which are against my well-being and are done with malicious intentions! I am perceived as "changed" only by those who are doing this to me. For the rest ones, I am the same old Nimish! What will YOU do if you were in my place?"
Friend smilingly replied, "Same as YOU dear!"
I said, "So do you still think I am changed?"
Friend said, "No my dear! you are my same old friend who is young and generous by heart!"
