In the Indian society its strange how all the grown ups always know "what time of life" you are in. Have you ever sat down and given it thought as to when you were told that "now is the only time you can study and prove yourself", or "now is the time that you must drink milk and grow strong", or "now is the time to get a job n stop studying" and the biggest is "now is the CORRECT time for marriage" and trust me, thats when you think finally its over...but what actually happens is you have a larger set of "grown ups" now telling you when to have a baby, which school to put them in, how much to eat, how to wear ur hair, how to treat your spouse....all i ask is...WHO gave them this ostentacious designation of "Time keepers of society"...why cant we for a change decide what time it is for ourselfs?
Is it pre ordained that I am to follow in the same steps as that of my forefathers? Arent times changing? In these changing times these self proclaimed time keepers expect the world to run like the past. The most frustrating is if God forbid they go wrong in their path of senseless advice then the way they blame the entire world of "bad time" or "bad habits" is amazing. Then it is a constant reminder that this bad time or bad habit is due to one huge reason and that un- doubtedly has to be "YOU"...
Yet we being the forward and traditional youth of a technologically advancing and religiously stunted country follow the time table of these time keepers and aim to be a better alarm ringer of our future generation.......
