The new generation work culture and people


I lived in a small town and worked. A small town has what we call, personal bonding. People seem to care. Small things really make you happy and keep you contented. We tend to get habituated to our comfort zone, and don't want to change it. But once you try to change it, initially you are very uncomfortable because work ethics varies from place to place. What is right for a small town may not be good for a big place and a big set up. Your value system has to be thrown to the wind and you will have to adopt to the new work culture. Every moment your conscience will bite you. And people are a bit impersonal. It means that after the working hours,it's just their family or new ventures and efforts for more money. You tend to feel that you are in a wonderland where you are gradually getting destroyed and a new being is trying hard to emerge and adapt to the change.There is a constant struggle between the old and the new and you clutch at anything to strike a balance

But it doesn't mean everything in today's big world is bad and to be criticized and castigated. People are not always self-centred or evil. Rather you find that in their impersonal attitude and indifference,there is a kind of restlessness to achieve something, may it be good or bad. It's really amazing that there is no mental barrier. In such set-ups, when you step in for the first time, you are welcomed with open arms and you are just sucked into the geniality and helping attitude. Even if it happens on the surface level, without any sentiment, or emotion,and it has it's hiccups,it'd good.

One does feel lonely inside and outside, when there are no trusted people to share your innermost thoughts, your ecstasy or pain, and your physical world is devoid of many people,and your subconscious mind yearns for a soul mate, you do feel lonely. But the best part is you come from a small place with a lot of love in you. And if you are sprinkling just a little of it at every chance , every day, it works out for you.Love never fails. Ego fails, overconfidence fails, selfishness fails, but love never fails because it is its own reward, and it may take time, it can move hearts and change worlds. So, let's celebrate life, and celebrate 'GIVING LOVE'. Life is so unpredictable, we don't know how many days we have got on earth. So, let's utilize this gift. We may forget, we may falter, but let's remind ourselves again and again that we are God's children. We can make the world or our worlds a better place.
