Myopic....are we?

This is for the "y" generation.......that is 'us'.....generation with loads of questions...and less answers......so unlike our parents who were rather happy taking life the way it was, accepting the rituals and measures to be followed.......sure we are not the same.....we dont take life and rituals the way they are coming to us or should i say, way they are imposed on us.....we question them @ every step.....sometimes right....sometimes just for our comfort to not follow them....but we are a little wacky n smart if one can say that....whether we should the blame the world wide web or the increasing GDP of our economy letting us more avenues, that is anybody's guess.....

Being from this so named 'y' generation, i sure get many questions in ma mind  about the way we live, why we survive, our aspirations, our lifestyle, the circle of life and vagerah vagerah......well!!! i dont want to get into philosophy here but cant help my writing letting me into it......its her fault, not mine...lolzz!!!

So, what should i talk about here, purpose of life, nah!!...how am i supposed to know that at 25, i will only have questions about it ''oh! didnt realise i just declared my age....nevermind'' .... then, lets talk about myopic sense of stuff.......long ago we did an assignment on marketing myopia dealing with myopic view of a business that one is into and its competitors.....well !! i feel the same applies to a lot of people in varied forms specially in a country like india filled with notions and poverty....few of them are quoted here....


* Small town boy changing his name from Amit to Sumit  in class second bcoz son of the tea shop vendor in front his house was also named Amit......oh boy!! how does it matter dude....newz myopic...
* Farmer giving away his crop to the local vendor at throw away prices until ITC e-choupal made them realise about the prices in the city n real worth of their stuff......again, so myopic!!
* Changing jobs for a meagre hike, myopic view towards career....we all know it still fall prey to it, take care!!!
* Not sure should we call this myopic, agreeing to marry a women after 2 meetings, y?, stuff is gud if u know wot i mean...newz myopic...
* Taking every advice right from career to laptop model to marriage from the same uncle whom your father thinks is the smartest uncle on planet earth..... so myopic...!!!

there can be a lot more to it....but i would like to get into our life n career n aspirations n comparisons made, not only by our respective mothers but we too......

At twenty five, we are bound to make comparisons about our professional growth....trying really hard to justify designation with age.....it is like one of those Speed Time and Distance problems....i have covered this much distance @ this speed in this less time to reach a senior Professional in this big firm....how about you??...awwww....!!!

I wonder if it is ok if we do that but why dont we continue doing this.......we dont compare an uncle aged 48 to an uncle aged 52 and their respective growth patterns...coz they fall under senior citizens now and done with everthing.....we rather presume it doesnt matter anymore without realising whether it should actually matter or not.....!!

At 25, i do have a plan that where i would want myself to be at 30.....and am also pretty sure that i aint goin to be there......coz i didnt have a shit idea 5 years ago about where i actually am today.....so the same shall continue....let life take charge of things.....

So my point is pretty simple that somewhere we do start taking life too myopically.....lyk it is gonna end @ 35 and we got 10 odd years to prove ourselves.....well!!! for sure, these are really important years shaping the career and all....but in the midst of this struggle......all that we plan goes some thing lyk this :::

" I plan to retire around 40 n then i will live in a small quiet place reading, playing and no stress in lyf " in different forms offcourse...

To me too, it is a perfect plan and have nothing against it......

but i would like to just keep it more simple n hopefully more effective which will be something like this:::

 "" i wont and should not be the same person that i am today one year down the line......even @ 59 if i know such and such stuff...@ 60.... i should posses more as a person....offcourse, at that age....personal growth will take charge and matter more.....but there should be growth all the more.....n all fields are open to me...from cooking to travelling to women to gardening to photography to astrology to sketching to music to yoga to.....innumerable stuff...!!!!""

This step by step approach and goals may take away the myopic sense that we tend to get into without realization of it.......i find this should work....but if somebody has a better idea....am open and all ears......
