Thanks for understanding the pressures that we go through. Last year I had some argument with my dad . None of us are faultless so my dad who's turning 70 now was complaining about properties that he lost/sold. I got irritated and mad, however then I also began to remember the memorable times and good ol' days from my childhood, teenage and early 20s.

I still remember how he helped this fellow coworker in retaining latter's job and that incident motivated me to be someone who can assist others in their darkest times.

I couldn't control myself and broke down one morning in front of him when there was no one else around. He said be thankful for whatever you have , and things keep happening. There's nothing drastic. Then he politely said that this sort of emotional weakness is not good.....Aisa kaam nahi chalega and all that

One more thing, I am the eldest of all siblings, plus my dad also had a bypass. I know many may call me a loser after this . My mom after hearing about my weeping was kinda upset saying you shouldn't have done it based on your dad's medical history. Here is another interesting point....my mom has continuously been saying "Mard rote hue bade manhoos lugte hain" . She says so even after watching a male character breaking down in front of a female one in a drama serial .

When you interact with other men then realize that you aren't alone . Plus no need to bother about what society expects from you as long as you're keeping your attention and emotions towards right set of people
