Pretensions

One day a fifty-year aged person passed away in a road accident suddenly. The whole life, he had been helping his family members, friends, and relatives in the best possible way. After some moments of death, all most all the near and dear ones started to reach the place of his dead body to attend the funeral. 

Somebodies cried like hitting their heads on the floor. Some persons were so crying and became senseless. Also, some were weeping in a so loud voice, and disturbing to the whole people in the nearby locality.

But the dead person's soul was laughing very joyfully and was saying that - " Why are you all behaving in a showy manner? Please stop these exaggerations. These sorrows are not from your heart truthfully. I know everything about this Universe. All are illusions. If I get back my life once again and sit here, you people would never give me a chance to live and exist. Because; human beings are the only animal on this earth, who can pretend to have a dead body also. No other animals can think even to do such behavior. I am aware of this bitter fact of life."

The soul was telling and telling repeatedly. But, nobody was able to listen to the voice of the dead person's soul.
