We are like that !
We were part of the recently held international book fair.
I was part of Mango books which is pictorial story books for children.
All the books were done according to the age.
It was necessary to find out the age of the child and show books accordingly.
On one of the days of the event an gentleman came to the stall.
Had a good look at books and as I should , I did , I did roll out the script.
That we do books according to ages, how old is the child?
The person reacted " I am not illterate and I can read" .
I was taken aback. I didn't loose my cool and kept quite.
It was a bad moment that's it.And it passed by.
I would not say it was worst moments but it was kind of awakening or wake up call.
At last, sometimes we are like that, rude.
My favourite saying is "Don't do to others
what you don't want others to do to you"
