Those days...
This one is not one of the usuals on Generation Gap or another story dippped in nostalgia.Its just a passing thouught. Try out...may be you find it true if not interesting.....
We all keep talking of the generation gap.
Ever thought how or why this gap is there....how is it created....
This moment this phase is the source of the Gap.The time we are in we are creating a Gap between us and the coming generation.
Think Back, we are all out of college/school for quite some time now... but are we? we still remember and discuss the same things....craving to be there one more time...We still get nostalgic on one song which was popular in the hostel even though it may not be our personal favourite.
Me and many of us are still stuck in those days refusing to move on discarding any claim of real world being better than those days and already starting to use "those days" kind of words.
Remember the last time you heard such words from your parents or Grandparents and retaliating by telling them that "those days" do not exist anymore and time has changed.
If you still can't, you will soon do. Just wait for kids playing in your houses and the park to grow up.
Try this one.... just go to your first/second school. Notice the changes that have come in the place/teachers/students and suddenly you will find yourself comparimg it to your times and already judging that your days were far better that theirs.
Funny but true... its difficult to get out of those days and believe me when we see the next generation growing up we do remember how we did it and how much fun it was that way...
Feeling old already? :)
