Gum-naami

I am blessed to have many friends with incredibly high IQs, psychological dyslexias and out of box thinkings. They continue to amaze my intellect. Last week I had an interesting conversation with one such friend.

Me: "Hum sab shayed apni maut se daRte hain"
He: "Mera khayal hai hum sab apni gum-naami se daRte hain"

Gum-nami in life doesn't mean you will be gum-nam after death too.Lot of people live a gum-nam life and are not so gum-nam after they die ... :)

so I do agree with your statement here ~ Mystic ... not so much with your intellectually inclined friend .
