Hi friends this topic I chose is such a one that everybody have to face one time or the other in their life. This is a very sensitive one which is the emotional feelings and the expressions at the funeral.

Yes everyone has to undergo this unavoidable one. Yesterday I had to attend a relative's funeral. I would like to share my mixed thoughts and emotions I went through.

He was a person who lived a life dominating his wife and he spent his whole life for his enjoyment, partying with friends and not caring for his children's education or their well being. He never felt responsible for them.

As expected one day he fell sick. He had several ailments such as diabetes, hypertension at a very young age but still he didn't care neither about his health or his family. He used to be hospitalized frequently due to which his wife and his children suffered with poverty to an extent that they couldn't afford to have proper food nor proper clothing nor could pay for their studies.

Days, months and years passed by but there was no change in his attitude. Once his daughter was denied hall ticket for writing her final exam. Everyone is aware that people readily gather for partying but will not be ready to sponsor for education or any other important cause. The same incident happened in their life also.

Mother and the child were crying bitterly. A thought arose in my mind, why do we think of marriage of the ultimate one when it is needed for her education why do we feel it's their own family's responsibility? Immediately without a second thought I paid her fees which was a huge amount because it was kept pending and that way helped her write exam and qualify for her further higher education. 

Many of my friends and even my parents were of the opinion that I went too much out of my way without thinking about my family. I totally ignored all those - if we help people who are in need, we too will be helped when we are in need. All her so called close family just observed them and escaped. This is the reality of life. 

At his funeral the senerio was quite the other way. His mother and his sisters and his brothers along with all their families gathered and the way they cried just for showing off to the whole world. They never cared about his health or his family's  welfare.

People who never shared even a single penny, spent heavy amounts for garlands and other showing off things and expressed their emotions by crying out loudly. 

Just felt - when will this society change its attitude? Why do people not do things wisely and only do for show put up and for grabbing others attention?
