Empty mind is a devil’s brewing pot!

Remember those pesky neighbors or those nosy colleagues at work or that Aunty you met at an extended family get-together or for god sake, that stranger sitting next to you on some bus or flight. Or worse still, your own blood- your own sibling. Or say, diluted blood- your cousin(s) who will make it their life’s mission to scrape through every secret that you may want to hold as your own.

How do you swat off those flies?

I have found a solution. For, it seems to work as of now. Hail all ye, who write/ pseudo write/ read and write(in your heads)- you have power in your hands. Scare them away by saying you will write about them in your next article or book or on facebook.

It terrifies people, to be written about. After issuing that threat with a smile on your face, watch them look at you warily. Its that moment of each opponent sizing up the other.

I dont probe into your life and you dont reduce me to a caricature in your article.

That is the mutual pact scripted between my tormentor and me, just with mere eye exchange.
