Where are we???

(Part-I)


I thought what's bothering me.May be the fact that I am just counting my days in Mumbai. I am just growing restless from the fact that very soon I am moving out to my native place. I dunno how it was here, it was quite ok as far as I believe. Learned a lot of things and not all of them I really wanted to learn.It's a fast life here, have to adapt soon or else you will be made to adapt.

All things have just their materialistic values, that's all, thtz the end of everything. You use it to it's maximum and then try to find something better than that. So everything is spinning around the simple logic of "Use n Throw".People competing just to get better than what their neighbor's has.Why ?? "Can't they get satisfied?? No way"."Nothing satisfies me" that's the motto I suppose everybody is following here.Nothing is spared not even the relations.You will find lot of people complaining he/she is not of my type. Then why do they went out first of all. It's just the first impression that draw one person to another,then slowly the true person reveals out and that's the end. Everybody knows the fact that no two person are same, then what's the use of complaining of being not of their type. Why everyone wants other gender to be his or her type?Why are they not ready to accept the truth? No way, it's satisfaction that always counts.


Satisfaction is not what you get when you get what you wanted. Satisfaction is something what you feel, when you believe that your needs are fulfilled. So satisfaction is what you believe.Even if you get everything you will never be satisfied and even if you dont get everything you can still be satisfied within yourself. It all depends on how you differentiate your wants and your needs. Wants and Needs are two different things.But it has become same nowadays.Actually people are misinterpreting them for one and the same. And this is not the story of one single metropolitan city named Mumbai. It's same story for each and every city in India.

Everybody trying to catch a culture that's far more western. No matter how hard people try to imitate, their imitation will always be at least a century behind.Coz people are just following their lifestyle, regardless of the actual mindset they should be in. No matter what, until and unless they dont take western mindset into consideration,whatever they do will still be termed as "following".

What is that Mindset of western people? I dont think I can define that but I can very well give you some instances of their ill effect and good effect. There are lot of good and bad effects of that mindset too. Remember nothing is pure or perfect not even god coz we all are creations of his imaginations.And imaginations are not perfect always.Lot of imperfections will remain. The biggest advantage,people are free over there, free to think free to adapt and most important they are open to any idea. They believe in doing something new every time and every time they do it it set standards for people over here to follow.

We will always be followers,simply coz we cant be thinkers and we dont want to be leaders......
Simply coz we dont want to think in new dimensions, we want to play safe and we always use ideas that are tried and tested over times. We never want to explore into non conquered routes of map coz we fear of getting lost. But remember,Until and unless you get lost you will never find a new way out. We always seek for ready made answers but never wanna venture into the process of making the answers. We do what everybody else do, so we will always be followers..

There are disadvantages too and what are they?
There people put themselves in front of everything,a kind of selfish act, they dont how other's would be affected due to their actions. They might know what the effect would be but they do it anyway as long as it doesn't compromise their situation.So free thinking is not always good and it will remain a curse as long as a mankind and nature is getting affected in a harmful way.

to be continued................
