Who needs respect the most? 

A lot of my uncles and relatives are now retiring from their job. People whom I have seen on job for my whole life are suddenly sitting home, mostly doing nothing. What my concern is the major drop in respect these people receive. When at office, we get some generic respect which fuels our self respect. We might not notice when it is there, but we will surely miss it when its gone. The people who retire face a major lack of respect both from office and family. Don't know if you have observed this, but I see a sudden change in level of confidence of these people. They feel left out or more of a liability. They are who need respect the most. If you see a retired person, don't see him/her with an eye of sympathy but immense respect. This respect will build their confidence and reinforce self-respect in them. What do you think?

Easy

Are you easy? Do you believe in people easily? Do you become friends with people easily? Do you fall in love easily? Are you easy to please? Are you easy to convince? If yes, then you are the best kind of person. There is no reason to be tough. Our insecurities, our fears make us tough. Creates a tough shell around us . If it is there, break out of it today. We get just one life. Be easy.

Power of religion

Don't you feel that religion is more of a categorization of humans? I am not saying it divides us. But, a different religion gives us a different direction, a different path to walk, a different bunch of people to follow. So what's the real power of religion. Is it in the categorization? Or how under one religion we come so close to each other? Yes, religion is by far the biggest reason to bring us closer to each other. It's not the geography or the language or the sports or the very color of our skin but the religion we follow. What I am saying is, if there wasn't anything such as religion or god to believe in, wouldn't we find it difficult to connect, to find the similarities. I am not talking about any particular religion but the faith. Even in the modern world, where trust is such a big issue, we are still holding on to the faith at large. That is the real power. What we do of it, is a different story.

Texting to the rescue

Smartphones have come to my rescue. I am not an introvert but I can't talk the way I type. Basically, I am more comfortable and better in texting then having a face to face communication. Most of you might be relating to this. Who don't relate to this are our parents or most of their generation. The modern mode of communication has evolved from its predecessor i.e. lingual communication. Texting is not a straight conversion on lingual language. We don't write like we speak and we don't speak like we write. That's why it is more comfortable. This basic evolution is missed by my parents. They generally text in the exact same way they would speak, which sometimes make it completely awkward and frustrating for them. But, we have learned it through practice. They will also.
