The changes in modern-day life are somewhat confusing in the basic nature. The paradox of our times is that we may have gone with the idea of taller buildings but have developed shorter tempers. There may be wider freeways now, but our viewpoints have narrowed. Most of us tend to buy more, but still have less. We may have money but we may not be able to buy something that can satisfy us really.
Most of us may even have more knowledge than our past ancestors but there is surely less of judgment in decisions and acts. Even the modern day businesses have more experts but the number of problems has not reduced but increased. Furthermore, we may have been able to significantly multiply our prized possessions but we have compromised on our values in the meanwhile. In short, we have learned the best way to make a living but not a life.
The worst thing is that we may have been able to clean up the air but have polluted the soul in the meanwhile. And, this damage is more dangerous than threat to the environment. It is even frightening to think that we aim and get happy to see at the market launch of a pill that can make us happy, cry, quite, or sleep more despite the fact that these are natural things and there was never a need to do them in an artificial manner. With one night stands and throwaway morality being seen as statements of the upper class, the world is going to end as far as ethics and morality are concerned.
The pain behind the eyes is now being hidden in greedy minds and bodies. We can spend a fortune at discos or bars but do not bother to help our neighbor in trouble or a beggar who has not eaten for many days. Life is getting ridiculous with each passing day and there is an urgent need to amend things before the world sees the worst part of the mankind.
The onus to make urgent and serious amendments lies solely with the youth of today. Are you trying your best to cure the world?
