A MAD WORLD


 A MAD WORLD




Almost all the human beings are in pursuit of money and it is a very common phenomena that they forget almost all the human values, while they hunt for money.  This journey towards prosperity has created a mad world and it is an agony that we are part of that mad world.

We cannot criticize people who are in pursuit of money because money is the only way to prosperity, and prosperity is one thing almost everybody likes.  It is quite natural that people want their children to earn a rich living style.  What is worse is that they forget to teach their children about human values, and divert their attention solely towards making money.   Almost all the parents plan their children’s future without considering the whims and fancies of their children.  They  fix a target for their children and most probably the target they set for them will be to become a doctor or an engineer.  It has become a passion of our society to make their children either an engineer or a doctor.  Only a minority think about other professions, and even then those professions will also be of  high esteem.

This line of thinking has created a very serious problem in the mind set of our children.  A student who is not academically brilliant to reach such heights mentioned above, thinks himself inferior to others.  Actually there is no reason for them  to feel inferior because the world cannot survive with only high achievers.

At this point, let us think a little about the balance of nature the almighty has provided us.  Just think about a society which is full of highly educated men such as doctors, engineers and other professionals.  Is it possible for a doctor to perform his duties without  other people’s help ?  Can an engineer build his career without anybody’s help ?  We have to understand that the existence of this human race mainly depends upon their mutual dependence.  It is a common fact that a human being needs the help of his fellow beings and he instead has to support others for their existence. 

There is no need for anybody to feel inferior to others,since he or she is also a strong pillar of the society without the support of which the society will collapse.  A cobbler, a painter, a factory worker, a farmer, a house wife and everybody else are as important as any others in this world.  We should have that confidence in our mind that nobody can survive in this world without the help of others.

Every human being should have the knowledge that this world belongs to every living thing in this earth. He is not the only one who deserves a honorable living in this world.  Every others has an equal right of opportunity and they also deserve a honorable living in this world.  The parents should educate their children about this so that they become an indispensable part of this beautiful world.  

Let us hope for the emergence of a world in which every human being complements others and helps for building a peaceful world.  Let us be free from the hatred we feel towards others in terms of race, colour and   let us feel no barrier to extend our love towards others.  Also let us change this mad world into a sober world without any barriers of caste, colour and creed.
