It's about my chubby buddy !!!

While having food at a north indian restaurant in a south indian place with a colleague I know, had me talk about a secret even hidden to me. It was very incomprehensible about how exactly the discussion sprang out from the inmost portion of my head...It was about life of a person closer to me than my own shadow... It was few years back.. He was out of school looking around in a puzzled fashion towards this world... His father had him, somehow, admitted to a college which was 2 hours drive away from their home... In the moment of excitement and unawareness, he took up the option of staying at a hostel, than travelling on a regular basis from home to college and then back. Before he could relish and enjoy a very short lived happiness, he realised that he was in a notorious city with notorious yobs surrounding him @ an ugly hostel. The guy was an almost regular visitor of 5-star hotels in Delhi and the transition was not settling to him.. Anyhow , he called me one day telling that seniors wanted him in the raw and he was devastated on mere thought of that.. They wanted him to buy "rubber" and lingerie from the market.. I told him to better get himself off that hell, than taking this crap... He did indeed !!! Now, after few years.. he is working in a mid-size company.. as something or the other... but the story does not end here... Here is the amusingly depressing part that could be understood through psychology... A part of him still feels that he was the one who ran away and needs to undergo that ragging in order to succeed.. He feels he needs the punishment that he was "supposed" to receive, which he didn't, so he keeps on crucifying himself in some or the other manner..and the truth is that he does not know about it himself !!! He walks on the road.. does not live at a very happening place.. does an average job than he can ... does not cherish the company of much people, let alone being a social butterfly..has given up on his air conditioned car.. television.. DVD player... his best buddies...beer ...chicken.. etc etc.. His life is much deteriorated than it would if he had done a crime or committed some sin... A lot of things remain un-answered in this mysterious world.. It is just to analyze ... then conclude...
