Ironies Of My Life

I suffered not for being incapable, but for being too capable 

I suffered not for being dishonest, but for being brutally honest 

I suffered not for concealing facts, but for being transparent 

I suffered not for accepting undue favours, but for refusing undeserved favours 

I suffered not for being loudmouthed , but for being discreet & reserved 

I suffered not for being rude & arrogant, but for being frank & outspoken 

I suffered not for breaking rules, but for sticking to norms 

I suffered not for disrespecting the institution, but because of defying the system

I suffered for all the wrong reasons because I did not belong to the system

I suffered because I did not walk with the majority and preferred to walk alone !
