See, what's your father doing!! At least he would think of his age, what will people think ...??? The words were daubed with love, I looked ahead and saw him plucking grass, removing rotten branches from the ground... oh, he is working as usual, nothing special, I smiled. I didn't feel anything bad but moved forward to stop him though am sure he won't. He would say he will be sick soon if he stops working, but only few understand, others try to prevent.. I think this is a big problem of our people,this what others will think.. lead them. I am not arguing, this attitude might be good in some decisions or acts..
