Wondered about the title? I dint meant losing one girl friend and getting a new one. :-)
Life is all the way going fun, hale and healthy. Had great responsibilities, working, earning, loving family members, friends around to entertain, savings, nice Girl or Boy friend(s) etc.. One day we will get married, will have children, soon mid-aged then more responsibilities, expansion in family, things goes on like this. Centuries and centuries have passed on. No man had a different life than this. Everybody lived through their life time and passed away as the time calls them up. But the world still exists healthy and comfort for the next generation to come. Its remaining still fresh for more generations to come. But everyone of us know that our world has changed a lot and still changingeveryday. What we have seen yesterday is not available now. What we experienced last night may not present for the next night. We dont know what will happen next day. As years passed-by we have lost many things as well as gained many things. Ask your heart these questions and try to answer it by yourself.
-Are you still able see your childhood playing ground? If so, are there any children playing?
-If you have children are they playing the same games what you have played in your childhood?
-If you dont have children then watch your other children in your relationship or neighbors.
-You might have seen group of white birds(crane) flying overhead in the evening time while you are young-aged. Just check whether these birds are still flying?
-You might have seen families with more persons as family members. You might have experienced or you might have seen in your neighbor's family. Where are those families now? Are you still seeing any Joint-Families?
-If you hailed from a village, then go back to your village and see whether the greenaries what you have seen in your childhood still exists?
-You can find more number of farmers in a village, they were countless. Think of today's scenario. You can easily count them as there are only handful of farmers now a days and also think about future?
-Where these old folk dances, country-side cultural dances and art-forms has gone?
-Do you think the real Husband-Wife relationship persists in every family today?
-Do you remember the Marbles(Goli) and Tap that we used to play with. Do the children of current age atleast know those?
-People from villages might had experiences with well, lakes, pools and rivers. Those are really amazing. Do our kids are willing to go for that? Even if they are, they dont find these kind of entertainers everywhere.
etc..
There are many etc s and you can add lots of such a kind of lost things to this list. But after all these loses what did we got?We can have another list of things that we gained. We had at both the sides. Positives and Negatives. We can list our positives like internet, communication, wealth, comfortness etc. Here also wecan have many etc s. But this is not what we really have to listen up. What we have to watch is the another side of the coin.
What we have got in the negative side.Let me list some of my thoughts for this.
-Pollution- Did we ever experienced such a bad polluted world in our childhood?
-Cultural destruction(I cant explain this here as it goes to bigger and wider thoughts. I think this should be an another blog topic)
-Un ethical living-Decreased care towards our neighbors and relatives. Do we really know all of our relations and do we have contacts with them really?
-People living in flats and apartments-Do you know all of your neighbors? Have you ever shared your love and affection during any of the festival times? (Some people are there, but not all)
-Look out the children. Are they going outside to play now a days? After they came from school they sit before a computer or before a TV. Didn't they?
etc.,
Still more number of etc s should be added for this list.I have shared this thought not to scare you or anything. It doesn't matter whether we are going to get back our old fantasies or not. Writing such a blog doesn't do anything. Reading this blog also cannot do anything.The world is going to change everyday. Nobody can stop this. This is out of my pain at the corner of my heart and this for the readers to realize their own kind of pain and to look back and say "I really miss you my life"
