Are we losing respect for our elders? Think Over it
In today's fast moving world, we seem to have
lost respect for our elders in pursuit of chasing our dreams. When a child
grows up, instead of taking up the responsibility, he often backs out. As a
result, his parents end up in some old age homes.
This small child when becomes an adult easily
forgets how his parents have helped him to walk his first step, how they had
spent sleepless nights for making him sleep, how his mother used to cook
delicious food for him, how his father used to drive him to school by bicycle ? Now he is a smart young man , who doesn’t wants
his parents to come infront of his friends because he would feel embarrassed. I
really feel very sad for those Parents who have kids like these .
In this blog ,I just want to convey my feelings. What I
feel regarding our parents and if I could ..may be change some of the people
who doesn't understand or had forgotten the pain and struggle
which their parents had undergone to bring them into this world.
Surely the care and the love they bestow on us can never
be compensated even if we serve them throughout our lives. But
unfortunately many of us doesn’t realize it. Today , we all are busy in our
life with our busy schedule. We all wanna make our careers, our life but what
about our parents , aren’t they part of our lives ?
Here I would like to share my own experience. I am an IT professional from a small town in Madhya
Pradesh. So I had to stay far away from my Parents in
Pune . Many a times a feeling of
homesickness arises . Many of you would laugh
at it but the fact is most of us had
such kind of feelings continuously
rounding around us and many a times I feel like quitting my job and coming back to my hometown ….to my parents. when
I was with my parents in my hometown till my college days I used to take them
for granted,used to argue with them for satisfying for no good reasons, never
understood their feelings …But Now when I am here I can easily understand there importance in my Life.
They don’t
want anything from us . But if we
could just give them all the love and respect they deserve then it is worth
then billions. In fact our Parents are the only persons in this world who could
give anything or everything for their
chidren but will not ask for a return.
“Mathro devoo bhava, pithro devo bhava", which
translates as Mother and Father are next to God. When the true meaning of these
words are lost, is there any use of praying to God for peace?
Hey
Guys we should realize that we are not only in this world for building our
careers, for going to States and fulfilling our dreams.Though I am not against
it but what I am trying to say is that never contempt your Parents. Always
treat them the same way and give them the same care as they had treated you and given you , when
you where a 1 year old child ,because in their age they just need your love and
affection. Give them as much love as you can. No need of going to a temple or
church if you are disrespecting your Parents ,for Parents are divine gift of
God and are indeed a bliss from God Almighty to all of us.
Guys
the feelings are more but the words are few ,so just wanted to throw some light
on this unnoticed issue. If you have really realised something and feel
something then please let me know about your thoughts and feel free to share
your feelings with me.
Hoping
I would be able to change someone with my thoughts…………..
