272. Impudence

 

*Impudence*

Sometimes in mind when I have too much in store 

The impudence behaviour does come across strong to core 

The things that bother me can be act of validation 

Or self guilt of not being able to achieve the targets comes out in form of irritation 

It can also be self pity where my tone comes across impudent 

Example -self praising to spouse on how many work emails I have sent 

This mindset occurs as in workplace my good things goes in oversight 

But any mistake becomes my highlight

There I am diplomatic and can't fight 

Feelings accumulated reflects poorly while interacting with dear ones 

At times they do accomodate impudent nonsense 

I can although say that 'they are my understanding people' in my defence 

But the relation gets a silent crack just by the act of impudence

Impudent words can't dissolve the worry

 

Things can't be the same even after a sorry 

I am generally soft spoken and I see fondness fab 

But my impudent act once would have costed me my job

As soon as I joined my firm , we had certain training to done 

I did them deligently and pending was none 

But from risk team I received violation email 

I was too quick to react which was lame 

What I conveyed was not wrong but the way it sounded impudent 

The situation went bad and and didn't come across what I actually meant  

On escalation I was asked to reconsider on the way I convey things afterall 

If in confusion I could have just given a call 

Than making a mountain out of mole hill 

I need not be impudent and some situations just be chill 

Instances where I am receiving side of impudence 

I just can't put the emphatic lense 

I am easily hurt and just express it too

Below is the instance that happened true 

For me clearing CA entrance level in first attempt seemed achievement truly 

I was so excited that expressed my happiness to all heartily 

Milkman who use to come each Sunday for money collection

Was friendly nice person and always had small talks some

I was not aware his daughter had not cleared and he mighe be dull 

His impudent reaction to my parents"' your daughter is jumping in joy as if she cleared CA final "

I was hardly in my teenage and my heart was innocent and free

I was excited loud , I was just being me 

That day I understood that my joys wouldn't be taken with same spirits in 

With impudent remarks I started drawing margin 

It definitely teaches me to understand the context before uttering and make sense 

Act of Impudence may be in giving or receivin

g end ,its vital to keep a strong inner fence!!!
