Mrs Funnybones: She's just like You and a lot like Me

by Twinkle Khanna

In my opinion, growing older is all about learning and passing it on, otherwise there is no reason for biological evolution to keep us alive after our reproductive years are over.

So, what do these messages really do? I think they allow lazy people to think that they are doing a good deed in the easiest possible manner by sending these daft bits of information out into the universe. Go out there! Sweep a pavement, plant a tree, feed a stray dog. Do something, anything; rather than just using your fingers to tap three keys and destroy 600 people’s brain cells in one shot.

I take a deep breath and finally all I say is this, ‘I just think that people rely too much on God; instead of asking to be in God’s favour, I would rather stack the odds in my favour. At the very least, I am certain that I exist. But ask your dad all these questions, you know I am not the religious type.’
