Sometimes suddenly some questions come to my mind and I am eager to know the answers. My friend who shares the room with me had to bear my questions yesterday.
I asked him, "What are the three things that you like the most in this world?" Pat came the answer:" 1)Girl, 2)Wine, 3)Money. I was eager to listen something else from him. So I asked "Ok! Two more things." He replied,"4)Fame and 5)luxury."
I was utterly dissapointed.
If somebody had asked me, my first reply would be, 'peace of mind.'
I just wanted to prove him wrong, so I continued,"Ok! suppose you were the only individual to be alive in this world. Suppose the world were as it is now but no human being except you, not even a single girl. Suppose there were tankers full of liquor for you and obviously you being the only one, all the wealth in the world would be yours.Then what would be your reply to my question?"
He said,"In that case I would just take a knife and cut my throat. In the first place if there is no girl, what's the use of living? In that case I would not need any of the other things."
I was speechless.
What could I say?
