BRAGOMANIA -I,me,myself

Often i come across people who like to brag about themselves. From bus to office and back from office to home the number i encounter has greatly increased. There is no area they dont know about. They always have a point to add. And they narrate such comic stories wherein they are the hero or centre of attraction. I love to hear their strange stories. This happens mostly in the bus i travel. From laborers to guys working in LifeStyle(mall) all love to boast about themselves.

This thing is good until one guy is a silent listener. If both are braggers then god save the rest. It normally leads to verbal debates, quarrels and even brawls. But i being a listener{here goes the word again 'I' being a listener. Bragging myself as a great listener :)} helps me judging others whether to idolize that guy or just listen. Its quite simple. 'The less you speak of your greatness, the more shall I think of it.'

There is another type of boasting and a strange one too. Its by criticizing others. I always do feel that criticizing others or making fun of others is a form of self boasting.

Its quite amusing and ironical that there are very few who actually walk the talk !!! Once again no offense boaster:) Enjoy this quote.

Mules are always boasting that their ancestors were horses.
