Why Break-up?
As a girl steps into puberty, apart from all the changes going on in her body and mind, the most intriguing thing she finds is a ‘BOY’. She wants to know more about them, she wants to understand them, and she wants to know about what they think about a ‘girl’, or to be precise, what a guy thinks about ‘her’. Same is the case with boys! A boy also wonders ‘what’ a girl is, and mostly, they end up spending their entire life in trying to understand the ‘not-so’ complicated species of ‘GIRLS’. Instead of trying to understand, if you just try to make them smile and laugh, half of the problems will automatically vanish!
Attraction, Infatuation, Crush, Love, all the terms sound so familiar, right?
Attraction is the first step of friendship, (don’t take me in a wrong way!). Your friends, the group you hang out with today, you like them, you think they’re fun to be with, they are funny and you simply enjoy with them, but the question is ‘why’? Because, you, in one or the other way, are ‘attracted’ to them. A girl may find another girl beautiful, and even a guy can find another guy smart, there’s nothing wrong in it. Human mind is designed to do the comparisons, and so we do it!
Infatuation is what happens next, we like someone in ‘that’ way, is termed as infatuation or crush! We want to hang out with a particular person, we want him/her to talk to only us and not someone else. Possessiveness starts pouring in, that stage is infatuation. If you are having a crush at someone, that doesn’t necessarily means you ‘love’ them or you want to be in a relationship with them.
Love, is a strong emotion, which is truly felt by very few people. Most of them ‘claim’ to be in love, but actually, they’re not! Love happens when you are attracted to someone, when you have a crush at someone, when you care for someone, when you feel the possessiveness and jealousy if he/she is with someone else. All these feelings combined, generate the feeling called ‘LOVE’. Love is something that generates within us the ‘will’ to stay with that one particular person, forever! When we are ready to be in a relationship with him/her, that is Love. In Love, a person is very serious about the relationship, and about his better half, and if love is true, everyone thinks about a long term commitment, or what we say ‘Marriage’.
There are many people who nowadays have made a joke of love and relationships, they just use the person for entertainment and then ditch him/her for someone else. If you’re truly feeling the so-called love for someone, even the mere thought of leaving that person or going for another one, never comes in mind, let alone doing all this. Love is not only what we feel in a sexual way for the other person, but the purest form of love is what we have for our parents and siblings and friends. We cannot tolerate them crying, can we? We can never see them sad, or tensed. We ourselves feel pain if something happens to anyone we love. If we have such pure emotions for our parents, then why can’t a pure love exist for another person? Why people ditch and leave and break-up?
Every relationship has problems, life is not a bed of roses, and everyone feels disheartened at some point of time, but, is breakup the only solution? If you have some family-problem, can you leave your family for that? Then why breakups?
Breakup is something that can leave a scar on a person’s heart, and a wound that cannot be healed easily. In my opinion, a relationship should start with terms and conditions and some promises, one should be very clear about his intentions before coming into a relationship. He/she should clearly mention to the other person whether he wants a serious relationship, or just time-pass. Whether he wants a long term commitment, or multiple dating? If such things are discussed before, half of the problem sorts out!
The most common reason of breakup is: ‘Infidelity’ or ‘Cheating’. People say that their partner wasn’t loyal, so they broke up! Ever wondered ‘why’ wasn’t he/she ‘loyal’? That’s because he/she simply, ‘wasn’t’ in a serious relationship. When a person has it in mind that he’s serious for his partner, he can never even think of ‘cheating’ on him! People ditch, cheat and go for other people, only because their mind-set is programmed that way! I don’t say the people who cheat are wrong or at fault. It’s their own mentality that they want multiple relationships, or they just can’t stay with one person, or they get bored too easily. It’s their own mind-set and their own thinking that provokes them to ‘cheat’. If he/she is clear in the beginning only that he’s not going for a serious relationship, the cheating would simply ‘not’ happen. Instead, a calm mutual breakup will ensure a peace of mind to both!
The second most common reason is ‘Lack of Attention’. People usually complain that their partner has no time for them or the relationship. He has become boring or unromantic and he doesn’t sing songs of praises anymore, and all other silly reasons! First, a ‘breakup’ is a big decision that shouldn’t be taken because of these silly issues. You should give some time to your partner and try to understand his position or state of mind, and try to figure out ‘why’ he is incapable of giving you time, rather than arguing and bitching about it! Most of the time, girls do that (sorry! But I’m unbiased). And the boys, please give some time to your girl, doesn’t matters if you are in a relationship since a month or a year or ten years! If you don’t give time, the relationship will die out, and it’s you who has to make it work not someone else, because it’s your relationship in the end. Take some time out of your busy schedule, and do something for your partner, make her smile, make her day, do something that makes her feel special, bring that old spark back that brought you together in the first place!
The other common issues includes: Jealousy, Possessiveness and Insecurity. What if your partner hangs out with other people or his friends? Does it matters if he’s giving proper time to you and your relationship? Hanging out with friends, going out for movies, is not wrong if your partner is true to you! If he/she tells you everything, then you should not be worried. Try to keep the relationship as transparent as possible. If you’ll show to your partner that you don’t have problem if he hangs out with his friends, then he’ll never hide anything from you. But if you’ll put restrictions, and you’ll complain, then he’ll start lying, which is not good for a relationship! Be clear and truthful with your partner, and many of the issues won’t just build up!
If you can express yourself well, then expect your relationship to be better than a million! Because mostly breakups happen, because of lack of expression and communication.
Stay truthful, stay clear, be honest, and you’ll enjoy your relationship even more than before! One life. . .

Republic or 'Rape'-Public?
Republic, err…no! India is now addressed as the ‘Rape’ Public with all the crimes going on at a massive scale, and the government officials maintaining a constant silence like ‘Barfi’…well, at least he managed to say his name in the movie, but here, the people in power are simply mute to the pleadings of common man, deaf to the cries of victims and blind to whatever is going on in the nation. With so many candle marches and protests held against the government, no action has been taken till today, i.e. 03rd January, 2013. December 2012 will be remembered as a black month in the history, but for how long? The government officials are taking the ‘three monkeys’ symbolized by Baapu (Mahatma Gandhi), far too seriously. He symbolized ‘see no evil, hear no evil, and talk no evil’. But today the politicians have adapted to simply one motto ‘see nothing, hear nothing, and say nothing’.
Such shameless people are in power today that they don’t even resign after being allegedly accused for such repugnant corruption cases against them. We vote for them, elect them with a hope that when we will need them, they will come to our rescue, help the people; but opposite happens. Women are publicly molested, people are exploited and the nation is raped daily with all the corruption cases and frauds in the country. Not only sexual harassment, but people are exploited daily emotionally, mentally and socially. Not even the social networking sites are free anymore.
That was one girl who was raped on 16th December, 2012, and the nation woke up. But government is still deep asleep! The accused are still alive while the victim is dead. The matter is not whether those 6 rapists will be punished or not, but the matter is when will all this ‘STOP’? When will India become truly free for girls and women? We cannot even dream about going out in our own town, Ludhiana, after 8pm, save those big metropolitan cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore etc.
Today people not only demand justice for the departed soul of the victim, but a strong rule and fast track courts to handle such cases in a bound time. But the question arises; will any of the demands get fulfilled? Or the people will as usual become quiet after a few more protests and marches? Will the victim be forgotten and people will consequently get over it? Or this calls for another revolution in India?
I heard some people demanding that girls should be taught martial arts and karate and other defence activities. But what if they are attacked by 10 or 20 or even more men? Over powering those men looks easy in movies and Bollywood drama flicks, but in reality, not even a black belt can do that with ease. Instead of teaching protection techniques to girls, how about teaching ‘NOT TO RAPE’ to men? Instead of making girls physically strong, how about making men ‘respect the sex that gave them birth’?
This topic has endless discussion and infinite view points, but what I felt, I jotted it down. It no doubt invites so many conflicting issues, but that’s all I felt, and thought to add in my site, so here it is…
Lastly I’ll conclude by few lines of my own:
I sacrificed so much for you, brother.
I loved and cared for you always, boyfriend.
I gave up so much for you and your family, husband.
I gave you birth with so much pain, son.
I am the ‘woman’, without whom your existence is impossible!
And what do you do to me? Rape me, molest me, kill me and end it all?
This is how I get re-paid? Today I demand an answer, today I want justice…

Hostlers: Today's Nomads
Hostel (if you have got the chance to experience it ever) is the most amazing part of one’s college life! Even after decades, the memories remain as fresh as of yesterday! Those late night gossips, playing cards till morning, going to college without sleeping even a second in last night, watching random movies whole night, bitching about the other college fellows and trying your hand at cooking late night, making Maggie or tea or just ending up with some unimaginable disastrous results!
Students from different and distinct parts of the country come together in a hostel like a family. Helping each other in times of need, sharing your culture and gathering knowledge about other person’s whereabouts, everything is so interesting! Hostels depict a mini-world, where all cultures, come together and share space! Hostel life teaches us something that is very necessary to have in us: ESSENCE OF ADJUSTMENT!
Many students before joining hostel are great tantrum throwers at their homes; who don’t know how to adjust with their younger siblings. Some just don’t care about their belongings, and some are so careless about their own stuff that it keeps on wandering here and there while in home!
But hostel changes EVERYONE! Though a little, or more, every student experiences some changes in his/her personality! When it comes to living alone, away from home, without parents or guardians, living with someone, and sharing a room, adjusting to the limit, all the brats transform into sweethearts! When they are exposed to REALITY of life, they realize the value of everything!
Many of my friends are living in a hostel, and some of them are loving it now…but one thing for sure, it has changed them a lot! Earlier some used to fight and throw tantrums for buying new phone or new dresses, but now, believe me; it doesn’t matters to them whether they’re carrying a Blackberry or a Samsung or a Nokia 1100! It doesn’t matters if they’re wearing Gucci or some Indian brand! It REALLY DOESN’T MATTERS ANYMORE!
I’m happy that I have clothes to wear, good food to eat, good facilities. I feel blessed, especially when I see ragged and naked children begging on traffic signals, I actually feel blessed! Living in a hostel exposes you to REALITY big time! Living without family is no doubt very tough. Some of my friends always thought they’ll make friends; life would be fun, living on your own, cleaning up your own room, no servants, no mom screaming for breakfast in morning! But now, whenever I ask them about their hostel life, they just say one thing: I miss school days more! I miss it when mom used to wake me up every morning; when dad used to scold me when every time I was late for school. I miss it when I fought with my brother for a piece of sandwich.
In hostels, they have no-one to wake them up and scream at the top of their head to make them get up. Nobody cares if they’re sleeping and missing college, or even dead! No-one scolds them if they’re late at college! Even their family members have changed since they’ve joined hostel, they’ve started LOVING them MORE! It’s not that they are not used to the love, but it’s that, sometimes, the family just becomes diabetically sweet and shower upon love, that they are not used to receive! DAMN! Some say they want their old folks back, scolding and screaming at them all the time; they want their old siblings back, who used to throw them out of the house, and not welcome them home with teary eyes every month!
A hostler change into a TRAVELER, a NOMAD rather, who roams from home to hostel, then again home at weekends or month ends or semester ends! A person always comes across REALITY or what you may say “REAL WORLD” once in his life…where all his friends may leave him…he may be left alone…and there maybe no one for his support. That is the time one realizes the importance of a FAMILY! Some people, who are always by your side no matter how far you are; the people who always make you feel special and important, no matter how less you visit them. So, always take care of your family…sort out disputes, make your parents feel special, take out some time for them, tell them you love them, and show them you care for them. God bless your parents…God bless you! One Life!

Life: A Hot Coffee
Many of us think about life as a tedious and complicated circle of mind-numbing routine that follows daily. But as exceptions are always there, so there exist people with better jobs and so called “adventurous” life. But at some point, even they find everything monotonous! Life is just like seasons, where everything paces up in summers and slows down in winters…there always exists an autumn, a dark phase where all the suicidal tendencies gear up in your mind, but “If Winter comes, can SPRING be far behind??”
Just like a cup of coffee, this life will also end someday! So, be a tasty one (yeah! In every sense and I mean it!!! ). Some people are fond of ‘cappuccinos’, while some love ‘mochas’ and some are simply crazy for ‘espresso’ and some lust for ‘black coffee’. Everyone has his own taste, own desires, own accomplishments but one common thing, everyone wants to enjoy and seeks a thrill, an adventure in their life. Something that is different and unexpected MUST happen to them. Something to gossip to a big bunch of friends for whole weekend; like a vampire should turn up and offer them to join his league…or even more adventurous!
But sorry, this is not a ‘twilight saga’ going on, this is LIFE (my gosh, that sounded so heavy…). Anyways, I feel that life should be as colorful as possible. Even the blacks and whites are required to form a visible contrast, all the blues are needed to enjoy the yellows and greens and reds and all other colors! There should be a perfect blend of every emotion in your life. If a person has never cried, he can never experience what a hearty laugh is!
Struggle is an integrated part of life…at every step one has to struggle to bear the fruits of success. A mother struggles to get her baby out of her womb, and then the baby struggles to walk, speak, and learn. Students struggle to be outstanding in today’s booming competition. A degree holder struggles for a good job and a dying person in his death bed struggles for the last breaths of his life. Struggle cannot be eliminated…right now even I’m struggling with words to get my thoughts out of my mind!
Focus and concentrate on YOUR WORK ONLY! That will increase your efficiency manifold and reduce the time you daily pour in for your work and you will be left with plenty of time to spend on other things too. Bitching about others can get you simply NOTHING! Just a little time-pass and a bit of relaxation from hectic routine…well, it can be achieved other ways too…not necessarily you need to BITCH about anyone for your personal pleasures!
Each day should be viewed as a gift for it will never return again. People make news about 11.11.11 or 12.12.12 for such dates will come after a century now. But actually, each date is unique and we will never see the same day again in life, so why waste it? Make it memorable; don’t just let it pass by. View each day as a surprise, a wrapped gift, a packed present…believe me, every night you’ll end up thinking about the surprises you actually received!
Make the most out of opportunities served to you, grab the chances, take risks for you are different from all the rest and you are the only ‘one single piece’ in this entire world. Don’t bound yourself, free yourself from every chain and let yourself fly, for once, do whatever your heart wishes to…for once just let go of all thoughts from your mind. Let go of all fears and thoughts about: “what will be the circumstances of this act in future?” Try everything new, wild, crazy, what-so-ever your heart wants you to do.
You like a girl? GO TELL HER, maybe she also likes you? Maybe she’s just waiting for you to approach, or maybe she’s just too shy to admit it. At least let her know what you feel about her. Who knows if she’s the one who is destined to be the mother of your children in future?
At least give yourself a chance and prove yourself. Don’t be a ‘chocolate syrup’ that settles down at the bottom of coffee, be the ‘whipped cream’ and stay at the top. As you enjoy coffee while it is hot, so enjoy your life while you are young and energetic! Remember, the time will never return again…a lukewarm coffee is either left or warmed up again. But life cannot be warmed up once it is COLD! So, drink it before it becomes lukewarm, live it before you REGRET later! One life…

But actually, each date is unique and we will never see the same day again in life, so why waste it? Make it memorable; don’t just let it pass by. View each day as a surprise, a wrapped gift, a packed present…believe me, every night you’ll end up thinking about the surprises you actually received!
Make the most out of opportunities served to you, grab the chances, take risks for you are different from all the rest and you are the only ‘one single piece’ in this entire world. Don’t bound yourself, free yourself from every chain and let yourself fly, for once, do whatever your heart wishes to…for once just let go of all thoughts from your mind. Let go of all fears and thoughts about: “what will be the circumstances of this act in future?” Try everything new, wild, crazy, what-so-ever your heart wants you to do.
You like a girl? GO TELL HER, maybe she also likes you? Maybe she’s just waiting for you to approach, or maybe she’s just too shy to admit it. At least let her know what you feel about her. Who knows if she’s the one who is destined to be the mother of your children in future?
At least give yourself a chance and prove yourself. Don’t be a ‘chocolate syrup’ that settles down at the bottom of coffee, be the ‘whipped cream’ and stay at the top. As you enjoy coffee while it is hot, so enjoy your life while you are young and energetic! Remember, the time will never return again…a lukewarm coffee is either left or warmed up again. But life cannot be warmed up once it is COLD! So, drink it before it becomes lukewarm, live it before you REGRET later! One life…

Mini Bollywood in Colleges!
May it be an engineering college or a commerce college or an arts one, all have their own mini-bollywood residing in them. Don’t know how? Read ahead and find out:
In colleges, only guys and girls with heroic and sexy figures are on the most popular list. Now every college have their personal Kareena’s and Aishwarya’s, also the infamous John Abraham’s of the college can be seen performing dangerous bike stunts outside the college campus to impress the new hot fresher aka Katrina of the college! But there do exist Salman’s, who are the brats and can beat-up anyone if they mess with them or their girlfriends!
The freshers of the college are ranked as per their marks in twelfth standard according to college faculty, but they are ACTUALLY ranked as per their looks by their seniors for their upcoming years in the college! Good looking girls can find million friends on first day of her college and many seniors approach them with hungry eyes on their very first day! By the end of the day, she ends up adding plenty of guys on facebook and replying to some hundred new messages saying, “Welcome to our college dear…for any help you can contact me anytime! Don’t feel shy sweety” and some really weird ones too like: “Hey b’ful chick, saw u in canteen 2day, btw Rocky hea…cute gal cya tomrw!”
While the hot and sexy girls are prime attention of seniors, but unfortunately the fresh cool-dudes of college are threat for seniors for they may steal their girl-friends! So they rag them and threaten them on the very first day! Filthy and abusive language is commonly heard while ragging, “Abey, bacha hai tu saale, teri maa *#$*%&^ shaanti se zinda rehna hai to hamare rules follow karne honge!” While maximum of girls are welcomed like sweethearts, but the guys are mostly exposed to unfavorable circumstances! Guys in colleges can be divided broadly into three categories:
1. The Sanjay Dutt’s (of Khalnayak) and Salman Khan’s (of Wanted) are the ‘BHAI-LOGS’ of the college! Any mess up or fight, and they will always be seen in the middle of the crowd. They usually have 2-3 girlfriends and some other chicks in row with them, just for the cool-look! And they are most of the time, surrounded by some comparatively less ‘daring’ guys who flaunt their courage all the time to keep their spirits up! But they too crave for Aishwarya’s and Katrina’s of the college and some fresher girls with sweet looks.
2. Then the second category is of the chocolate boys of college, basically the Ranbir Kapoor’s (of Bachna Ae Haseeno) or Imran Khan’s (of I Hate Love Stories) orShahrukh’s or we can also consider all the Emran Hashmi’s in this category! They pretend to be lover-boys and big time flirts and killers aka ‘shikaris’ but actually end up falling for one sweet girl.
3. And the third category comprises of Sharman Joshi’s (of Three Idiots) who are always busy mugging up the syllabus and studying all the time! To whom the terms like love, relationships, and sex are foreign and who think that talking with a girl is next to committing a crime! They can be easily found in college libraries or computer-labs, working on some projects or mugging up some more books!
Same is with girls…the three broad categories are:
1. First, the popular hot girls like Vidya Balan (of The Dirty Picture) who are mostly seen with the Salman Khan’s of college surrounding them in really short skirts and who are always flaunting their cleavage one or the other way! They end up just being an ‘entertainment, entertainment and entertainment’ for guys, and nothing more!
2. Then the second category is of ‘sweet and bubbly girls’, just like Preity Zinta (inKal Ho Na Ho!) or Kajol (in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai) who are in the eyes of most of the guys of college! Even the nerds can focus on them by fault because of their sweetness! They have lot of friends and they are always seen in the middle of a big flock of girls around them! They also become the common reason of fights among the guys!
3. And the third category is of SUPER-NERD girls, like Vidya Balan (in No One Killed Jessica), who are most of the time busy with their books and their computers and doing some random projects. They don’t even know the terms like ‘bleaching, waxing or even hair-cut’, they believe in “hidden beauty” and so they prefer “hiding their beauty!”
So, every college has a mini-bollywood, while some people play the characters, some just walk in and out as audience! Some are the heroes, and some villains, some are geniuses while some, total NERDS! Every college has a colorful life…so, go discover it in your college, add colors to your life, live to the fullest…one life!

Polyandry and Polygamy!
Polyandry is a practice, referred to the women who marry more than one man, or have physical relationships with more than one man, throughout their lives. Polyandry is prevalent since ancient time, since the time of Mahabharatha, where queen Draupadi had five husbands, the five pandavas. Although this practice has been stopped now, and is no more a common affair, but in some remote areas, it is still celebrated. Especially in villages of eastern India, where the female population is very low as compared to the males, and so, to maintain the balance and to prevent males from remaining single all throughout their lives, ‘polyandry’ is practiced.
In ancient India, kings and rulers of dynasties, practised ‘Polygamy’ widely. Polygamy is the act of having multiple wives. From King Dasaratha of Ramayana, to many Islamic people, polygamy is widely practised, even today! Muslims believe in polygamy and still have multiple relationships. Islam allows polygamy, and a man can have up to four women, if he can afford them.
But all these relationships are with consent of all the partners. The deal is made, and further marriages are done. Guys anyways find it to be ‘fun’ to have more than one girl in their lives, but personally, I feel that true relationship can be established only with one partner.
Shahjahan had fourteen wives, but his love for Mumtaaz Mahal is eternal and still alive, in the form of ‘Taj Mahal’, which is now gracefully acknowledged as one of the Seven Wonders of the World. No doubt he had a big fat family, but still, he was inclined to only one of his wives, and that was Mumtaaz.
Polyandry and Polygamy is widespread in wildlife creatures, especially bees. But the animals who can feel emotions for their partner, like penguins, dolphins or elephants, choose to have only one partner for a lifetime, and so should humans do. Human beings have feelings for their partner, they feel jealous and possessive, and they want themselves to be the most special person in their partner’s life, and not someone else. Even the mere concept of having multiple partners shocked me.
In some far away villages in East India, the practice of ‘Fraternal Polyandry’ is prevalent. Women marry all the brothers of her husband, and they live happily together, and even have children. Similarly, in Islam, even today, men have multiple wives, and then they raise gigantic families. The record for having maximum wives, still alive, goes to Ziona Chana of India. He has 39 wives and 94 children, and more than 40 grandchildren. He lives in a four storey house with over one hundred rooms, with his giant family. A family that could be declared an independent village! They consume around 200lb of rice and more than 130lb of potatoes daily! That’s a lot, right? Well, it sounds fascinating, to have such a HUGE family of your own, but managing so much, without any disputes, is another saga altogether. Mr. Chana, being the head of the family, although handles all the important decisions, but he hasn’t allowed his any son to get married to more than one wife. That’s pretty strange, for a man, having around 40 wives, to not allow any of his children to have multiple life partners. All his sons work for a living, managing so many women is an expensive task, by the way!
I believe having multiple partners destroys your personal lives. With guys being so possessive, and girls being so manipulative these days, one can’t even think of having another partner. Handling one peacefully is already like finding oasis in the desert, well, Sahara Desert! Nowadays, people already suspect their partner for cheating and infidelity, and they can even kill them for that, let alone allowing them multiple affairs. If you can’t tolerate your partner being comfy with someone else, then how do you expect him to do the same for you? The question is, with so many people (men or women) going for multiple relationships, can they tolerate their partners doing the same? The answer is ‘NO’.
With a survey conducted on Islamic men, researchers found out, that they keep their women in hijabs, just to ‘hide’ them, even from the eyes of other men. Can they allow their ladies to sleep with other men? Never! And then, they themselves indulge in polygamy and have multiple relationships. Where is the equality? I’m not targeting Islam in particular, the question is not for any one religion or sect, but on the entire population who involve in polygamy or polyandry. Before you do something like that, just imagine your partner doing it, and then go ahead. If you are comfortable with the thought of sharing your partner, only then share a part of yourself with someone else!
Else, remain faithful to that special one, and enjoy life to the fullest!

Killing Bills!
Latest mobile phones, (blackberry’s, I-phones) expensive cars, (Mercedes and BMW’s and Audi’s) branded clothing, (Versace, Gucci, Prada), a big house (a palace instead…); now all these are the only symbols of belonging to a good family. Values and etiquettes seem to have lost their significance. Now, not only parents or teenagers, but little children also demand big cars with drivers err well dressed chauffeurs to escort them to their play-schools. And if someday their dad comes in a small car, say, a Maruti Swift to take him from school, the child (saving himself from future insult from his class-fellows) says in front of all his friends, “Kya papa, Swift mein kyun lene aaye ho? FORTUNER mein aana tha na…” (In other words, child is saying we also have TOYOTA FORTUNER at home!) and then he looks at other kids, if they HEARD what he SAID and the dad will be looked upon by all juniors as a criminal!
High society, fashion, classy lifestyle, everything is now being adapted blindly. Parents simply overlook the impact their deeds can have on their little ones. Children feel ashamed in going out if they are not dressed in branded clothes. And if the family is getting ready for some party, these kinds of phrases are most commonly heard, “Sweetheart, mere GUCCI ke shades kahan hain?” “Darling chalo aaj Jaguar mein chalte hain, Mercedes rehne do, last time bhi Mercedes hi leke gaye the” and so on…and the little champs of the family automatically set their mind that JAGUAR is a better brand than Mercedes, so the driver should come in Jaguar tomorrow to their school.
If the junior has his birthday, only imported Swiss chocolates should be distributed among his class-fellows. Any Indian or local brand can gain him utter shame and insolence. Promises are made to the best friends of a treat in a five-star hotel in evening including expensive food items, exclusive ‘shin-chan’ or ‘doraemon’ cake, a magician or a joker as entertainer and what not! The friends also get him expensive and useless birthday gifts including branded watches; play station games, remote controlled cars and robots etc. The gifts only consist of big money nowadays, and no feelings at all! Gone are the days when handmade gifts were in trend; and friends put in their heart while gifting something on birthdays or other occasions. Now, what matters is only the cost and MRP.
Then the weddings, we Punjabis are no doubt famous for their diverse cuisine and eating habits, but that doesn’t means that we should spend unnecessarily on weddings too! Though dowry is a restricted and criticized practice in Indian Culture, but it is still famous and prevalent in Punjab. Expensive cars, lavish amount of cash, jewelry, furniture, clothes, property, and land are gifted to the bride and groom as if the groom’s side has got nothing at all. Then the weddings are full of million different kinds of foods, including Spanish, Chinese, Mexican, Italian, continental out of which maximum goes into trash after the wedding coz we desi people are not much fond offeeka (tasteless) international foods, we like spices in our platter!
Then the decorations…the marriage palaces and halls are decorated lavishly, studded with gold and diamonds instead! Just for other people to look at it for a few hours, criticize the odd combination of tents in lawn amongst themselves, praise it in front of family members and walk away! Guests are heard talking among themselves, “Purple and yellow…what a sick combination! I feel like puking right now!” and after sometime, same person is heard talking to some family member of bride and groom, “Purple and yellow look so great together, who’s the wedding planner? Amazing decoration sir, I must say!”
People know that maximum of their food and money will be wasted in weddings, but still they spend like mad, for whom? Wedding is the most precious and important day of life for the bride and the groom, focus should be laid on blessing the couple and being a part of their happiness instead of spending millions and billions which are worth nothing in the end. For whom so much is done? For the so called high society which is not high in their views and values, but only high in sycophancy? Money has lost its significance!
No-body nowadays is happy in other person’s success, everything left is just show-off! People show as if they’ve got million dollars under their beds, and their children become conceited and egoistical. Parents instead of providing ethics to their kids, give them heaps of money to waste upon useless stuff. Little kids behave as if they themselves earn million dollars a month. Gone are the days when only a fifty rupees note was enough for whole of the day…now even a thousand seems less looking upon the prices of even daily supplies!
And then people complain their expenses have increased, budget of home is disturbed…ask yourself fellows, who has disturbed the budget and who has increased the expenses? Stop throwing money like trash, learn to respect it, teach your children principles and not flattery…live to the fullest…one life!
