REGAINING THE LOST GLORY----2

                        REGAINING THE LOST GLORY----2
          Ancient period saw  the dignity of labour in its full form.  The recent period had witnessed people fussing more about their economic status and declining to do the low selling jobs.The people then had satisfaction in what they did  and lived their lives happily. The present generation--women refuse to do the household work and all the men want to do a white collar job.  They prefer to engage maids for even day-to day chores. None of the educated be it a doctor or teacher want to live in their native villages and develop them. They wish to live in cities --rather metropolis  and earn more and more. The result  the three  u's  urbanisation,  unemployment, unethical activities.
             As the cities are more crowded and populated, one finds it difficult to find a job or a shelter .The medical graduate does not want to treat in villages,the agricultural graduate does not like to work in farms.So are the other educated people also. When they donot find proper job or money, they stoop to such a low level activities like chain snatching, robbing, burglaries and even smuggling and kidnapping.
 When none is ready to plough the field, or grow crops how can one expect the value of food grains or seeds or other comodities to go down. Is it not high time we teach our children the dignity of labour and teach them to do their own things right from childhood? We should explain to them in detail the qualities needed to be a good citizen instead of qualifications to become an employee.Might be then our future generation will experience a safer living times.

  2. I think these two posts contain a lot of food for thought, especially for parents, since the only hope we have is to make the future better, and one way to do that is by rectifying our mistakes as we bring up the next generation. Very nice work, Indira. All my prayers and good wishes are with you in your mission to enlighten people.
