Stealing Curry


Last night, I kept waking up on & off. Finally I just got up, walked over to the kitchen, open the fridge and helped myself with my wifes’ amazing beef curry. Beef curry and loaf of breads are my favorite. It was hot, spicy but awesome.

I guess that was the underlying reason for me to not eat a heavy dinner. I kept asking her if the curry was done while having dinner. She was so tired she didn’t get the hint. Finally I gave up. And she thought I didn’t like the ‘Khichuri’ she made. Ooh, can you imagine her hot beef with the khichuri.

Sorta glad, I didn’t have it. For sure I would over indulged with absolutely no regret.

After coming back to bed though, weird how thoughts can enlighten us even in the middle of the night, all of a sudden I had an epiphany. And it was about stealing.

You see, what I did last night can be framed more or less a manner of stealing food while everyone is sleeping. But here at least I don’t have to worry about my hand being chopped off. Even though it may truly suck for the victim, but for the thief it is a mean to survive. The act of stealing is a way for society to balance itself, ensure survival.

Just to be clear, at the moment I can think of three kinds of thief.

1.       Habitual,
2.       Greedy, and
3.       Desperate.

And here I am referring to the desperate kind.  A person who doesn’t have a job, haven’t been able to find one for some time. If such a person gets caught rather than cutting off their hand, we should save his/her dignity and try to help the person anyway we can.

In conclusion, here is something that has been discovered recently.
