Time changes!

There was a time when talk of the social media was laughed upon. That time has long since passed. What we await really is what after this. What after this invasion of immense proportions on the life of our information penchant. What after the emergency of quick and immediate response. What indeed the answer to that much required calm and balance of thought, so assiduously pursued not so very long ago. What the restlessness of the young and youth of today that need immediate satisfaction of an answer, of a finishing, of ‘fine .. so what next ?’

My own belief and standing on the matter could belie the obvious, for, I do patronise the immensely valid reasoning, that, if given the opportunity, the health of subdued presence would most certainly manifest itself into a bearing the young would be a signature to.

There is far too much distraction to keep away from all that presents itself. There are far too many avenues that pave the way for a diverted attention. There much too much on the plate to devour. And devour they must. The ‘other’ does, so why not me ?

It is more the challenge of possession. They have it why not me. And if I do not have the means now, I shall work to get them. The criteria is to get. The criteria is not to study the reason or its outcome before treading on the path.

Innovation results. Different practices emerge. Ruthless competition erupts. Aggression overtakes passive approaches. And the final results, with some degree of achievement, have not always been to order.

Where there should have been a churning, a burning is gaining prominence. We are burning out excessively - our desires, our needs, ourselves …

Excess is, well, as excessive should be. Its burden often creates a want when factually the excesses are there within you and in possession.

In the battle for those wants, we often forget its futile and utterly undesired need.

Nothing that you shall possess shall ever travel with you within the portal depths of the earth or the burnt elements of the fire.

Better to leave behind a legacy than an unfitting mountain of possessions …

The warmth of a smile can never be portrayed as effective, until the stony eyes melt too … that then is the closest one can get to the difference talked of so greatly in most forums of the human …

Love to all...
