What is being Maintained...

Today, a thought that came to my mind regarding the generations we live. Generations after the generations, people come and go, they live and die, leaving behind someone else to continue. The ones who continue, also die some day leaving someone else to continue. This goes on. No matter what you do in your life, either you had lived a normal life or you have achieved equal to getting "Bharat Ratna", which is highest civilian award in our country, we have to live with a generation who is new to us. They are the future of our family and we nourish them whole of our life and expect them to keep our values alive after we die.

This thought came to my mind when I was watching the movie "Baghban" in which the generation gap was very much shown with, I believe , a bit more negative side. But the lesson to convey was, did the older generation face lesser challenges in their life than the current one? Is the role of current generation's skill more important than their parent's hard-work in making their children capable enough to live a better life? Does the accommodation and lively hood of parents become a topic of such an extra-practical concern that they have to stay separately and not together?

In my opinion, it becomes the duty of any generation to compromise with two other generations, the one older them and the one new to them. Its true that the Generation Gap is a valid issue with everyone but this should be easily handled and adjustments are to be taken care of from each sides. Everyone should understand that other should not compromise too much, otherwise they will feel inferior.

So, if we are living this life, and we have to live it because change is the law of nature. So the question that arises here is, when people are getting born and they die one day, what is their that remains generations after generation. The growth and decay of human values is  not a one day process. It takes a very long time and effort. The money, monuments and property, they all come to an end one day, then what is that something that we preserve. According to a survey, a person is not able to spend more than 10% of what he earns in his whole life. What about the rest money? It is kept for coming generation. The next generation also does the same. This continues.

The new Wallpaper of my phone...

Well, to start with I am not going to bore anyone with all details of the new gadget I got last month, though its awesome. Today, when I was ironing my clothes for the coming week, I just went to my cell phone when it was getting charged. I noticed the wallpaper which I set yesterday. It was a 3D wallpaper of huge buildings of some other country. I thought that though it looks nice, what if I put another one which I downloaded yesterday when I got this one. I am bit choosy with these things so initially I thought it was a thought that slipped to my mind and I went back to where I put the iron.

I then thought what if I do not liked the next one which I though of putting it in my phone. Generally I do not change my phone wallpapers but what if I start a trend for myself that whenever I feel like changing it, I actually change the petty things like wallpaper and ringtone.

Though the above thought was about a small thing and I wasn't doing anything great task that moment, I continued to think what all I should now change for me. What all things, thoughts and anything else with me are now outdated and actually need a change. I just cant stop wearing the shirt that I liked very much just because it does not looks that good to others, stop wearing the tie that my best friend once brought for me just because its more than 3 years old or anything. Should I stop working and start believing in luck only or should I stop believing in myself and start believing in the things that actually lead me to fail in past.

I simply can't think of what difference does it make when I change my thoughts of how I take things and when I change the way I do them. I think it takes equal efforts to change how you take things and how you do thereafter. The only difference is in time when you think so. If initially you think that whatever you do is a part of your personal life and even how you do in your professional life is also a part of your personal life then you are not wrong if you take it and do it in right way. If you think everything you do in personal life and professional life is a part of your professional life then that is also not wrong but it also depends how you take it and how you do it.

We cannot make a judgement on the basis of how we take the things or how we consider things to be. Judgement should be made on the basis of how we treat them. Your friend can be just a friend to you or a very close one for you but how you behave with them makes the difference.
