5 things I hate about myself:

1. That my handwriting is not beautiful…it definitely is legible but the number of times I’ve looked longingly at the perfect handwriting of certain people around me is uncountable.

(Thank You God…at least I can write.)


2. That I’m not physically strong…not that I would like to punch anyone in the face (or in any other place) but I’d most certainly have liked to have had the assurance that I could if I had wanted to.

(Thank You God…I never really needed to hit anyone.)


3. That I cannot sing…one of the fondest memories of my childhood is that of my mum (mother’s sister) putting me to sleep on her lap effortlessly singing lullabies in her delightful voice. I’ve a little nephew now and it pains me to realise that I could never pass on the much cherished experience to him.

(Thank You God…I can talk.)


4. That I have motion sickness…I often feel sick (and throw up too) during long rides (sometimes during short ones too) which others seem to enjoy a lot (the rides, not my misery).

(Sorry God…can’t thank You…innumerable trips (regular and fun) have been ruined because of this problem.)


5. That I’ve written down the things I hate about myself but am incapable of writing down the things I loathe about myself.

(Let’s keep the poor overworked Fellow out of this.)

  2. Thanks a ton Souvik! These problems did bug me a lot in the past...and they still do so.
    But your last line takes the cake. (Winks!)

  3. The post was more about thanking God than your hating things about yourself. Now, if you were to thank him then why not square put the blame on his shoulders for the things you hate about yourself ? Two sides of the coin, ain't it ?

  4. Can't agree more with you Spiderman...you got the point...but God didn't! I bet He's feeling more complacent than ever after reading the post...these days people don't bother to "analyse"...if you know what I mean. [;)]
