I don't want to go to Hajj - simply because of the whole drama you have to go through asking for forgiveness in person - eye to eye. I get way too emotional.
What's the need to make it so emotional and cry every time? Asking someone for forgiveness is a very personal thing, because obviously "assumes" that there was an interaction between you and that person - sometime in life and you might have in "anjane mai" galati ki ho. So for me to go back in time with each person - brings up a roller coaster rides of emotional tears - although I know I am not a b*tch. Usually, if I have done something wrong unintentionally - I have asked for forgiveness at that moment. That should be good enough.
I have been thinking about going to Hajj for the past two years, but I am not able to come to terms that I will have to cry so much to get there...and believe me it's totally pure emotional bomb hidden inside me :(
I'm never going to hajj - just for that.

^lol - ya you are forgiven... hey actually this is a good way to "practice" asking for forgiveness. Maybe I then I will have the courage to face real people - whom I know I have not done anything wrong to. (so it just beat me - why should I have to ask them for forgiveness?).
Once I get over the "asking" for forgiveness part in person - I ill be able to go
