December 4. “Button, how do you see life?

Do you see it as tough or boring or rosy and full of fun or do you have the chalta hai attitude?”

“Life is rosy. My family has provided me with so much that I am grateful to them and to God for sending me here. There’s nothing more I need or crave for.”

“You’re so cute. Thank you for saying such nice things about the family.”

“How do you see life?”

“Great but it has its ups and downs. I see life as a jigsaw puzzle. You keep arranging the pieces, one by one—the good and the not so good. When the puzzle is in place, life comes to a standstill.”

“That’s a nice way of putting it. By the way, what’s a jigsaw puzzle?”

“It’s a puzzle where you have many pieces of various shapes and sizes. Once they are assembled, a pattern is produced. My personal jigsaw is more than 50% complete.”
