We give more importance to things then people

in #love10 months ago

It's very sad when someone tries to capitalize on your kindness. The kind of world we live right now is the one where human values are very less, where compassion and empathy are very low for others and there is more value of material things. For material gains people will not stop to hurt your sentiments and emotions. This does not happen only with stranger people; it also happens in families. Rather I see it happening more in families.

Strangers I understand we have no personal connection with them and hence they may value material things more then humans they do not know, but when someone of your known does that to you it's very hurtful. So many children of today I see have this problem, when they grow up, they start chasing material life and they give less importance to their parents. Last month I went to a old age home to spend some time with people there and my heart broke looking at them. Most of them had children but yet they were in that old age home, because children have no place for them at home. How very shameful of them to leave their parents in that condition. When I spoke to the care takers there they told me that most of them are well to do families, so it's not that they have financial problems to take care.

The world is getting more and more selfish and mean. When I look at these kind of things, I only get one feeling that I have to be independent all my life for which I have to be financially strong and I have to be healthy so that in anyway I am not dependent on anyone.

Some times it's difficult to understand if it's all about Karma or it is just that we humans are losing the touch of compassion and kindness towards each other. When we see other people suffer, we also think it must be their karma, but I believe that it may not be about Karma all the time. It can be low level of consciousness also that must be driving people to behave so inhuman towards each other. Also we are so much connected to gadgets now that we do not even realize that there are people around us with who we need to stay connected

Nowadays I see so many young children behaving like zombies, when they are off their gadgets it looks like they are lost, they do not know what to do with their free time if a gadget is not what they are on. They are so self-absorbed that they have no connection with their environment and people around them.

Probably in the next few decades this would be very normal, everyone would be living a life in which only things will matter and value for people and relations will not mean anything, and hence they may never know what it is to be like a real human with emotions and feelings.

Yes, you are right. Still, certain boomers criticize my choice to remain child-free. They never think I'm smart because I'm prepared for the future. Instead, they think everyone that is child-free has malicious intentions when the truth is my siblings and I take turns to care for our parents. Selfish people think it's okay if their own child make certain choices but not when others do so.

I don't think it's anyone's business to judge you. No one knows what's going on in your life and what drives you to make these decisions. You must give a deaf ear because you know best what you need in life and how you want to live it. There is no right or wrong in it. To become a parent or not is your choice.

Claiming that millennials neglect their parents for money or material alone is not entirely reflective of the whole truth. Maybe their parents abuse them when they were younger or never spend quality time to care for them. Now that they are angry adults with money so they feel their parents deserve to be neglected. My parents are the lucky ones of the extreme end because if they migrated to Western countries, they could get sued for child neglect. It's generational difference. My peers have professionals as parents that cherish them even before they were born. They got a head start at everything. My siblings and I got carefree dysfunctional parents who got married to fit into society's model of the ideal life.

Oh my dear, I absolutely agree with you, it's not just a one way straight forward issue which comes from the children side, it also depends on the upbringing of the child. There are many parents who behave selfish in their younger days and neglect their children and then in old age complain about their children not taking care of them. But at large nowadays I do observe that children get disconnected from their parents even if they have been well raised.
Yes there is no one side to blame here, it is all the environment that one goes through.

We've definitely losing touch with essential human values in this modern age we live in. Observing this zombie like appearance that people have while immersed in their gadgets or just after it shows how increasingly disconnected we're becoming of real reality. Some even live in their minds most of the time.

That's true, even when some of them are not on the gadgets they are still lost in some other world

Most children of today do not really care about other people even the ones they know and that’s why we are hearing so many strange things in this world that people do not do before. People can just do anything anyhow to their siblings and they see it as norms. It’s crazy and I just hope the world could be a better place again

The fact of life is that money drive all the relations today.

You said it absolutely right because everything changes with time.But what should we do to stay with children is the most important thing but children do not understand this

Yes our upbringing matters how our children become when they grow up, but there are external influences also that impact them
