# 4 years plus or 4 years minus!

4

My 4 years elder brother, a fit and right weight person, 4 inches taller than me was in Mumbai. I went to his house for a day and was sitting in his drawing room. His friend came in the evening, and I opened the door.

Now, comes the moment, which strengthened my determination to be fitter.

My brother’s friend thought and addressed me like I am some 4/5 years elder to him. Embarrassing yes, insulting no, because it was unintentional. Anyone of my size and shape will pass off as 4-5 years more aged to him. I went to the washroom and checked myself from top to bottom. I spent many minutes on my fat face and belly.

I was disheartened. In that mirror, I tried to visualise myself as a fitter and leaner person. Yes, I could be amazing!
