There were optimists..Who saw the glass as half full..
There were pessimists..
Who saw the glass as half empty..
Then there were debates for centuries over whose outlook is better...
And yeah, they are still arguing..
Over the time, we have evolved to a new generation..
Who doesnt see the glass at all..
No optimisim..
No pessimism..
Pure and simple "In your facsim"...
Ask them why?
Pat comes the reply "why bother?"
And they get back to their respective PSPs and iPods..
No ifs..
No buts..
No worries..
No questions asked..
No answers expected..
Outlook towards life?
Dont bother me and I wont bother either..
You can keep the glass also with you..
And do whatever you want with the water in it...
And flash a sign meaning "Gen X" (so much for HCM, gen X was supposed to be 70s)
Mention "Gen X" and three quarters population will make a face (reflecting disgust)
They obviously dont approve of them..
May be they dint get to do things in their times..
May be they dint get things this easily..
May be their lives were not as comfy..
May be whatever..
But what "Gen X"s fault in this??
Why do you stamp them for being irresponsible, inefficient, indifferent??
Dont be under the impression that these are clueless.
They are brimming with ideas.
They work way more than you used to do in your hay days...
They earn more..
They enjoy more...
They still come home on time..
They still have dinner with parents.. (Thats a different thing they leave home the moment parents hit bed :) )
They still care for olds..
They still carry the age old traditions..
They are more confident..
They tend to risk more..
They fail..
They get up..
They get going again..
Just coz they dont want to stick to monotonous 9-5 work cycle, doesnt mean they arent serious or they dont know where they are heading...
Wrong..
They VERY well know...
And thats the only reason, they change line of work the moment they realise this is not for them..
They dare..
They explore..
They truly follow the concept of "vasudhaiv kutumbkam"..
They dont care about the glass..
The concept of half/full doesnt exist for them..
They would rather have water from the tap itself..
Time to rephrase the saying ???
