There was a time when things were so simple and life used to move on a soothing pace and people were calm and used to live a much healthier life, life so epic and well oriented in its sophistications. I describe those days as the days of tranquillity and gratification. When it comes to accountabilities whether subjective or social, people would carry out every responsibility religiously and in a fashioned manner, not because of some extraordinary flairs being possessed by them. Actually they used to be so bright and innovative in their thoughts that would boost their conscience to act in a polished way, besides optimism was there.
With the alley of time life evolves and things change, But that change perceptibly shapes itself in both optimistic and pessimistic means. Now thats up to us whether we opt for optimistic changes or pessimistic ones. Unfortunately we often come across people being captivated by pessimistic thoughts that certainly affect their behavioural etiquettes and is prone to uncertain attitude.
These days people are hooked on the era of gadgets as they are caught in time warp. Our television set can no longer be called as idiot box, its a Smart TV and of course a phone thats more than just a phone, now thats a Smart Phone. Surprisingly people are so habituated to gadgets that they often get engrossed in hysterical and fanatical manner which badly confines their life.
Somebody has wonderfully devised certain actualities of life that verily helped me to delineate the present era in an elucidated way:-
Everybody is into sprinting and wishes to win over others standing in a cue, if thats what we call as life, then whats your definition of death?
Having a bus to catch, were often anxious about missing it, when its raining, as weve forgotten walking in rains and getting drenched.
Being well updated about the wellbeing of serialized characters but sadly we dont have enough time to inquire about the wellbeing of our mother.
Now we dont like barefooted walks on the grass
We have numerous TV channels to watch; even then the no. doesnt suffice to entertain us.
There is no question that internet has constricted whole world into an easy accessible small box in which every single person is in touch with the whole world but incredibly rather sadly we dont even know who lives there in our vicinity.
Mobile phones, landlines, tabs are copious but we dont have endearing words to communicate our best buddies.
I think we should curb the usage of gadgets according to our necessities so that we could have a refreshing and a prolific life ahead, Life that would be so serene, so pure, so beautiful and so flourishing
