Selfies,groupfies,swimfies(God help us!!!)
Racism,discrimination,advanced weapons system
Fast cars,fast motorcycles,fast life
The modern day advancements and sophistications at times baffle me
Have they actually made life simpler?
Or have in fact complicated it?
The era i grew up in
We didn't really have that much choices
We had to be content with whatever was around
And we were
In fact we were pretty happy
And now look at us..we are spoilt for choices
We don't know what to leave and what to take
I miss the era of the '80s and the '90s
We used to look forward to going to the fair
We loved playing out in the sun
We loved reading
I miss writing letters
I miss looking at black and white photographs
I miss taking autographs
I miss cassetes and tape-recorders
I miss taking a walk at night without the fear of getting mugged or shot
The kids today at times they scare me
The things they do....
...At times it's hard to tell whether they are super-intelligent or super-dumb!
Computer games,getting laid and smoking ***...that's what a lot of them seem to think about!
They seem to be so engrossed in their phones..that at times it's hard to tell whether they realize that there is a world outside of their phones
And the norm now just baffles me
You wanna dump someone..just text that person
No calling or even meeting that person
They don't even got time to talk their parents!
Sometimes i wish that i was born in the early 1900's and i died in the same era
Agreed that back then there wasn't so much amenities or facilities like we have today
But life was much more simpler and peaceful
And most of all people in general were much more tolerant

Husband-So,honey where do you want to go for our honeymoon?

Wife-It doesn't matter where we go..take me whichever place you want.Just promise me one thing.

Husband-Anything you say..just tell me.

Wife-Promise me that we'll be spending most of our honeymoon staring at the ceiling.

Husband-You got it!

One of the most sincere forms of respect is actually listening to what the other person has to say.

Trust,commitment and communication are the three pillars of a relationship.

Trust is like paper..once crumpled it can never be perfect again.So never break it.It's very hard for a relationship to sustain itself once trust issues start creeping in.
Commitment is crucial.It is important that you are committed to the relationship and from time to time keep showing this to your partner.
Communication is often undervalued.It is of paramount importance and lack of it is often one of the major reasons for relationships falling out.Whenever you have an issue or there is something that is bothering you..talk it out with your partner..don't keep it concealed within you..he should know what you feel about him and the relationship.

What a world we live in
The rich,famous and influential can just buy their way out of trouble
While the common man is harassed by the police at the smallest of mistakes
The police has now become a tool in the hands of political parties
A man is shot just 'coz of the colour of his skin
The wrong-doers are granted relief by the courts
While the innocent are wrongly framed and put in jails
The wronged keep waiting for justice
to be delivered
But it never arrives
Or by the time it arrives they are long gone
The way i see things..
..that day ain't far
When no common man will ever approach the police or the courts
'Coz both are becoming corrupt with every passing day

Having a good plan is one thing...executing it well is another thing and when it comes to executing your plan..it's not just about your skill but also your belief and confidence which matters.
