Catch 22

i had read catch 22 a while back, and was wondering what are the we situations we face it in.....
so here are some situations that I have felt many people go through

If you are not well and dont tell anybody and things get out out of hand, you are blamed for not sharing your feelings. On the othyer hand if you complain of not being too well, people will call you naazuk. Either way it is the suffering person who ,well , suffers even due to things other than the illness..

Another one

We read a poem in class VIII by ogden nash(something like "one more time...") where he is stuck in a similar situation....he goes to the dentist and gets treatment. he is happy that his problem has been fixed.... BUT then(here comes the catch 22) the dentist advises him to visit him every 6 months so that he can stay away from other tooth problems...The poet's main aim of visiting the dentist was to get rid of his problems, so that he doesn't have to visit the dentist again, for which he has to visit the dentist regularly.
this is a situation faced by anybody who has tooth problems

yet another one

This one's on a bigger scale.
India's population is growing at a rapid rate and this is a reason why the government is not able to educate the masses. On the other hand elementary education is required to be able to stop this population explosion.again we have a deadlock.
this situation can be dealt with though, by educating the mothers in all families.

The all encompassing one.......

Life is a catch. One is born into this world to enjoy its beauty and live life happily. yet all religions teach us abstinence. they say that telling a lie is a sin, it can bring no happiness. If a person gets happiness by telling a lie, he can very well argue that, telling a lie, is not a sin after all.

Random but good thought.

This thought came to my mind while I was waiting for a bus on the BRT corridor at sheikh sarai.I had just crossed the road though it was a red light for those crossing the road and thought,"why do people break rules(traffic rules in particular)?"
"It is almost always for their own benefit", as anybody would say.

So I had this thought which helped me break away from the guilt

Q.: who are the people who break the rules?
Ans.: They are people who think about their own benefit and act accordingly
conclusion: This establishes that they( hence I ) "think" and act accordingly and are not fools.

this was just a momentary thought to stop feeling guilty. On the other hand, the people who know that they can break the rules for their personal benefit and, even then, don't do so are the ones who are above petty things and think for the general benefit of the world. I am generally on this level but tend to slip sometimes (that was the reason I had a guilt feeling).I am making a concious effort to maintain my standards right now.

hope people will have an insight after reading this..
