Why do I make a fool of myself??

Well, yes!
I make a fool of myself a lot of times. Sometimes it happens naturally, but sometimes I am just inquisitive enough to know the facts right from the scratch.
One fine day, not so fine actually, but there you go. One fine day, I was coming out of my office with a friend of mine and we were searching for an auto to go home. A person was standing in front of an auto just like he owned it completely. I thought he was the auto driver and went there ans asked, "Bhaiya, Ghaziabad chaloge?" And he looked at me with such an expression as if he will eventually kill me. Of course, he wasn't the driver, but it looked like he was. I made a fool of myself in front of at least 10 people including that friend of mine and she still teases me for that.
Not only this, my life has been full of such stupid and life changing experiences. And you know what, these become memories afterwards.
In fact, it's good to be stupid and make a fool of myself. I get to learn a lot because when your glass is already full, there's no place for more water. So, I keep my glass half filled always.
Sometimes, it's a deliberate attempt to be a fool. Why? Simply because you learn a lot by acting stupid. You will learn better if you make mistakes, because that's first hand learning. It's okay to sideline your pride for a while, you will actually grow in long run.
This is a proven fact for all aspects of life. As rightly said by Steve Jobs, "Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish", we must always push ourselves and never be satisfied with the current situation. Be ready to embrace anything new, maybe there's something even better stacked-up for you, who knows.The bottom line is, if you shy away, you will lose on a lot of things which you can't even imagine. It's also true that it might be worst decision, but then you see, it's just a possibility. Steve Jobs says that this mantra will keep you younger and happier at heart. You will always try to explore and be daring, and by the way, age is just a number guys. It's the heart and mind that gets old and aged if you stop learning.
So you need not do anything, just get out of your comfort zones and play like a child. Don't let yourself vanish because you are the best and most unique person in the world.
