Why I will never write my memoirs

There was a comment on Facebook by someone that I should write my memoirs. I replied that I will never write my memoirs. The person asked why ? 

I said that by mentioning just one incident ( the corruption by a Madras High court Judge ) I was furiously attacked by many people. Mentioning all incidents will be opening up a Pandora's box. I have been deep inside the judicial system at several levels ( lawyer, High Court Judge, Chief Justice, and Supreme Court Judge ), and so have seen the darker side of the judicial system intimately. To disclose everything would raise such a storm that I may not be able to withstand it. 

So let me remain quiet and preserve my peace of mind.
