Personal interpretation about the concept called favour bank of Paulo coelho's 'The Zahir' :
-Unlike the regular banks,in case of Favour Bank you deposit favours and expect counter favours for interest!Favours can have many manifestation viz a little act of rendering small help or uttering a few good words about you or giving compliments.All these get accumulated in a virtual account and your conscience is indebted to repay it all though you do not whole-heartedly want to or willing to do so.Many a times it so happens that people would want to act according to their own whims and fancies but try to have a blind eye towards their own thought process and portray themselves differently fearing that favour bank policy is a rule meant not to be broken and their social image might be at stake if they do so!.....Though it sounds pretty cynical,it is so very true that "favours are expectations personified" and tend to guide our actions and reactions at some point of time.
