Recently I was discussing about honour with some of my friends. I never think about any thing superficially, I either think or do not think about it. So my thought express started its journey toward the station called reputation or honour.
Being born in a country where women burnt themselves alive in fear of being dishonoured I can understand this passion very easily. I have grown up reading about Rani Padmini, the divine beauty who killed herself happily so she does not have to surrender to an emperor. Who of course wanted to legally marry her. In childhood I adored her courage and after growing up I realized her self respect.
Some people will follow her without hesitation and others will compromise. Human passions are really a very interesting field to study, a very enjoyable show to watch. I love to gather as much as I can about human nature, feelings and passions and then watch the show called human life.
