Yuck! Look At You!

I happened to hear this conversation a few months ago

Guy: Hey .. You know what ? A guy had asked me about you last day .. He found your new pic quite attractive..

Girl: Wow! Is it? What did you tell him then?


Guy: I asked him not to look beneath your neck coz you are a fatso!!! Hehe..
Mann! He was laughing like hell. The moment I heard this, I turned around to check him out. I laughed!!! He was talking as if he resembled shah rukh khan. How sick!! I couldn't stand it any longer so i walked out. Later i felt ashamed of simply staying numb. How would she be  feeling? Wouldn't she be hearing the same dialogues even when she is so gorgeous ? Maybe her spirits would have risen when he told her what the other guy had said to him. She might have cried later.. Well who cares ! Just because she was plumpy by nature, she just ought to be criticized na? Her beauty, kindness, intellect nothing else matters. All that matters is her being a fatso and that bloody right of all lean ones to make fun upon that! Now I said about a girl being bullied for being fat .. But later I realized, being slim is also a factor to be bullied. Last day one of my friend was being bullied by his closest friend.. " hey just look at you.. i could use you as a toothpick!!". And guess what? The guy who bullied him wouldn't be even half an inch fatter than him!! Lol.. The guy couldn't see anything else in him but the fact that he was slimmer than usual! After all those years of staying by his friend, supporting him in anything and everything.. This is what he gets! And I'm glad that I didn't shut myself up then. Maybe bullying is something that doesn't have rules. But it surely has same after effects in whoever is being criticized. No matter how good or how glamorous he/she is, bullying effects their confidence, their happiness .. And the people who bully proves their weakness, not their strength. If God has given you an over all perfect figure, it is not your license to comment on others' weaknesses. See the beauty! Appreciate! After all what do we lose?
