Curry leaves...

Most of us are aware about what curry leaves are....it is a flavouring leaf and is typically used in every south indian dishes.But the irony is...every one likes its flavour but no one eats it.It is almost always picked and left aside in the plate,though they enjoy its flavour.The reason behind me writing about it here is...i just remembered a coleague of mine who had a tuff time in professional life...the phrase used was"I am used like a curry leaf,after the work is done I'm left aside".
I liked the comparision made...and it remains a fact that we really enjoy its flavour...but its position is in dustbins most of the times.
Most of the times..we humans will face such situations in professional life...ofcourse , sometimes in personal life too...but prominently in work areas.
Very recently,a person was shifted from one dept. to another..when asked he said i am no more required there.This statement made me recollect the above mentioned quote.
After all,CURRY LEAVES are CURRY LEAVES which leaves flavour...if consumed,its good for health as they are rich in vitamin A....if left aside they still do their job of giving contentment by providing flavour....so relish it either way :)
