Well yeah. That was just my lame attempt at humour. I guess everyone knows what a sting ray is though. And if you don't, then, "Stingrays are a group of rays, which are cartilaginous fishes related to sharks." (Defination credits to Wikipedia!)
A few days ago my younger brother in first grade had come over. Suddenly he came up to me and started telling me about a video he had seen. In that video, a man had been bitten by a sting ray and he had died. After telling me so, my brother paused waiting for...a reaction?..to let what he said sink in?...a question? I don't know. But to keep up the converstaion I asked 'innocently',
"What is a stingray?"
To say the least, he was shocked. In return he asked me what I was doing in eleventh grade when I didn't even know what a sting ray was. He asked what my teachers had taught me all these years. Now, I did know what a sting ray was, but if I would tell him so, he would ask me why I lied. If I told him I didn't know, I would end up making a fool of myself.
Moral of the story - It is as simple as this, Bee UreShelf. :D Don't pretend for others. Be free and do what your heart says always! Then whether it is infront of your younger brother or great grandmother. Whether that means being the only girl playing football (or cricket in that case) or cracking the lamest jokes possible! It could even mean liking broccoli/neem juice and so could it mean being able to dance in the middle of the theatre. In this way you will always end up having awesome fun wherever you are! Rock on guys!
