Inherited habit   Article Published in The Gulf Today Uae on 15June 13 (306)

Last week, when I was buying groceries at a supermarket in Bangalore someone patted on my shoulder asking, “How are you, Rajan?” It was my old colleague. I greeted him in return and mentioned that Rajan was not my name. 

He said he had forgotten my name due to the long years we had not met. I remembered he always used to forget names, like his father who was working as a professor. People inherit various habits from their dad but my friend seems to have perfectly inherited forgetfulness.
