This is the latent Hindu in you, having meaningful conversations with bulls. I didn't think there'd be as many stray cattle in Lahore as there are on the other side of the border for obvious reasons.

mmm...
I dont think it was your lahori trait to go round the golden-buffalo as there was some lil space, I believe this is your genuine quality to straighten the matters and you made some effort to avoid any flying-fun at road.
May be you should be Capital Traffic Inspector to avoid traffic jams and plan swift routes in capital for its problems and also educating the traffic at various chowks (plz exclude chowk.com its hopeless).

It is unethical to expect the first bull to make way for the second, or for anyone to kiss the feet of a bully and thus satsfy their ego. Such an approach may indeed help avoid any "scenes" and circumnavigate any showdown between bully and bullied, but in the end, it does more harm than good; it encourages such behaviour.

As a result of the furst bull's actions and the consequences, any other animals given to making their way by force would certainly think twice...it depends on whether you are willing to sacrifice temporary comfort for a principle stand.
