Are we getting busy or selling off our Principles?


Are  we getting busy or selling off  our Principles?
Our  life is like  open  book  nowdays.A huge group  of  people  we virtually  know  almost keeps track  of  when  we  are  waking up ,when  we  are  going to  latrine, whether it was a  bubble bath or  a  warm  shower.Nowdays  we often  confuse  privacy  with  being introvert.We  are humans and  even  in  this  electronically mechanical  lifestyles  we do not forget  to  nurture some feelings.Those feelings  include  love,friendship,kindness and  bondage but  hand in  hand  comes  lust,greed,cruelty and brutalism.Needless  to say  we  need  them  all  but  now days  the later  are predominant .Our phone buzzes with texts and whats app messages all day.Catching-up and how-are-you-calls far and few in between.When did we start getting lazy about relationships?We dream of exploring places and seeing people far offAre  we getting busy or selling off  our Principles?
Having no clue of who lives next door...When did we become more pretentious and less curious?I remember once my  dad  told me  that  one of  his friend  went  abroad  and his  cousin  almost  ate up  the  head of  his  friends  saying how he is  waiting  for  a mere  cigar case his  brother  promised to  bring.People knew  how  to  be  unconditionally  happy.Now, if your cousin  comes first in  his  class  your parents blame their  zodiac  to  produce  you  who is  hovering  arround 5th-6th-7th  and  may be kicked  out of  the top ten circle any times.We were fascinated when one told us they travelled abroad.We now envy the updates and photographs on social networks.When did other's joy start making us feel bad about ourselves? You envy  if  you boyfriend  is  enjoying  rain-dance  dance party  with his guy friends,and he is  undoubtedly  dubbed a moron with lower ethical values.What about  you  do  you  listen  to  miah  ki  malhar  when  it rain? no you  dont  ,instead  you  give it  a face "eewww  dont  tell  me indian  classical  music  can  be romantic".But  when  ragas  blend  to a  bollywood song  the same  vocal artist sings and  Shahid Kapoors  eyes  get wet for  Kareena  the  same  girl  would  say "woo shahid was choo cute na ,can  gimme the  download link?".Life  changes  with  a very  expensive brand name  tagged as  "busy" we  do not  know  how  many dollars can  buy  it.Sometimes  its  cheaper  that whatsapp  forward videos  ,wechant and other chit chat apps .Sometimes  abit too expensive  that  you  sit with your  intel  windows 8  laptop  with  open  full net coverage  still  update  from  blackberry  to  let others know you  use a blackberry  and  you  do not have time .

  1. The very meaning of happiness has changed these days. If you really want to enjoy life, think of things money cannot buy
