Ideologies


Lost in quagmire of thoughts, I sometimes wonder if double standards have become a way of life. People who claim to be practicing “Do what you preach” are the ones who imbibe double standards. And this applies in all walks of life. It’s hard to digest especially when people whom you look upto- start behaving similarly. Life cant be demystified and however hard you try to fathom, some things will still stay like the tip of iceberg. People with double standards play under the veil of “Saam-Daam-Dand-Bhed” and classify it as strategy. On the one hand they show themselves to be extremely people centric on the other- they are self centric to an extent, beyond imagination. While life is giving me multiple experiences, it is harrowing to see your “Goods” getting fraught by worldly pleasures.

The Generation Gap


Sometimes I am extremely surprised at the ideas of my parents and not because they are outdated but because it is exactment en face.  In spite of coming from orthodox backgrounds and belonging to a back in development city- its heartening to see them adopting the modern ways of life. While these modern ways relate not just to thinking, food habits, lifestyles- it is generally acceptable that the views of 2 generations can never be similar. But the case here is different. Parents who didn’t opt for risk for their own growth are going on a changed and risk path of their offsprings. While this one relates not just for careers but also for personal life- Questioning the societal norms is extremely commendable. Glad that I have both of you in life
