The world has become very busy. Everywhere people are running. Running for what? Status? Money? Fame? Success? In this mad rat race people have surely forgotten who they are and what is it that they really and truly want. Are the things that they run after, the things that they really want or are their real needs something else? Do they stop running once they get what they were running for in the first place?

In some of our metros, people don’t have time even to meet their children. They meet them on Sundays, because on weekdays, when children leave for school, parents are sleeping and when parents return home in the night, the children are sleeping. So what is it that is so big that people are running after it at the cost of their family life and even their own lives?! (more…)

In these present times, perhaps the most defensive word used by most people is “excuse me”. People do not do what they have to (and they have an attitude that reflects it too) and then they use these words as a shield to save themselves! These two words are used in every area and aspect of life e.g. for not reaching school or college on time, not reaching office or violating the traffic rules etc and the list is endless. We have excuse(s) for everything!

Why we use these words is because we do not want anyone to blame us for not doing things in the proper way or at the proper time. We want to avoid doing them and then we also want to go scot-free and unrestricted. It only shows our lack of sincerity towards most of the things we do (or we are supposed to do). We take things lightly without even trying to know seriousness or gravity of it. (more…)
