Ego of Giving

I am generally high on de-cluttering. However, there was this old exclusive, sky blue lehenga-choli with hand embroidered bootis, which I was holding on to. My daughter had worn many times over. Now, she was ready to part with it.  “Let Go”, is what I heard and had to agree upon.


I called my house-help, keeping the skirt all spread out on the table, to show how beautiful and expensive it was, specifically pointing out the handwork, the net dupatta with tassels, etc. etc. How she had the privilege to receive it!

 
Waiting for me to stop, she uttered the final words – “Didi, mujhe colour pasand nahin hai” and walked away.


 I was aghast!! – is an understatement. “Ego of Giving” was ceremoniously busted!
