When I would turn 40-IILM GSM

My Working parents raised me very modestly,they taught me to survive alone,to back my instincts and go alone.It was hard to comprehend then why two well of hard working parents ,one a lecturer and one an Officer with the Indian Railways,would raise their only son so modestly,teaching him to curtail his desires,and get things he wants on his own.

The World changes every moment,Does it Not?

What If I turned 40 one day,and looked back,I would not be satisfied with whatever I would achieve then,and this is one thing that scares me.

But then If I were to apply this to a country or our Society as a whole,How would India be After 20 years?

We have imbibed the best practices from the World,but with development,our values have detoriated,have they not?

Kalam Sahab,Talks about a Knowledge superpower for India by 2020,but What if this Quest for knowledge,the race to be the best,stripped us of our values.The Values you and I,have grown up with,Do not lose them?

Keep them Intact,Because those Values are you,You lose them,you lose The beauty of being an Indian,you lose the pride of coming from the Culture where religions have existed in peace and hormony,We have given the world Buddhism,we have given the world Zero,We have given them peace.

The only thing I Wish for myself when I Turn 40 is to have children who respect me ,who respect our culture,and for me,I wish,That When my Parents look at me,I be the mirror of them where  they can look at themselves and be satisfied that they raised me Well.

What are we?-IILM GSM

I start with one simple question “WHAT ARE WE?”

For this I really don’t have a valid answer because we all are unique individuals and have a different thinking and thought process all together which might create a difference of opinions.

But our thoughts really different from each other’s?. What I think is that our thought processes are different but the thoughts we come up with are one way or the other, same, but with different angles attached to it, not much to bother about it though, just a thought. Writing down things above have deviated me from the original question.

We as human beings are a bunch of self-proclaimed, self-inflicted, self-ish beings. I am not trying to blame and condemn the whole species, no offence, but seeing it as a whole what are we trying to show each other, competition?, self-portrait?, better than one another?, or is it in the word of unique that we often trying to see the brighter side of world and its people end up seeing the world and its people as we see fit or we desire the way as it should be?

YOU DECIDE!!! As we all are UNIQUE individuals we must be having different opinions from each other, and those opinions I really want to know. So think about it for a minute with a clear mind as to “WHAT ARE WE?” and let me know of those thoughts in the comments box below this post.

Your thoughts awaited.
