got some 'change'... ?

The only thing constant is 'change' ... this concept is drilled in every MBA student's brain

Its fun to notice it around u.. observe everything that has changed over the years. Compare everything people , places, things, thoughts beliefs.. everything..

Striking discoveries

10yrs-20 yrs before and after:

Fashion is absolutely OK for gals to follow. I see grandmas buying sleeveless, knee length skirts etc for their grand daughters.

Education is taken seriously for females. Best part is women are encouraged to work after completing their education. N no. of oldies have asked me 'Job ka kya hua tera... better start working soon' and / or have blessed me with 'may u get a nice job with a good company soon' when i touch their feet instead of 'may u get a nice boy and get married soon'. its such a pleasant feeling..

Going to any place outside India was like touching heaven ... NOW... i think i heard my maid planning a trip to Dubai..

Remember our times when we were kids... visiting our relatives place... we would try to be extra disciplined extra sweet and extra polite just to earn that 'such a well mannered child' award. Now a days i guess the parents forgot to give that little lesson to their kids. The 'kids' tend to act extra smart extra irritating and extra ill mannered ..

the other day i heard a 10 yr old boy ask , "Tera office kaisa chalu... sab theak?" now this was to a person who was 20 yrs elder than him...

what shocked me was when he commented on my figure... that too in front of his parents..worse.. his parents didnt say anything they were smiling their way to glory..

Its sad that the innocence is fading away at an early age.. one cannot have a decent conversation with kids these days.

Have you tried comparing people from now to what they were ... try comparing your class mates your friends... its amazing

recently i discovered a childhood friend who was a complete hopeless pathetic asshole change to a perfectly sensible chivalrous gentleman. It was such a pleasant surprise.

But i also discovered that the opposite happens... a completely shy , superbly intelligent, sensible guy turning into a pathetic irrational asshole... well he has become a disaster. hmmm... what to do things happen..

When asked 'wat happened? ' both said.. 'I have changed'

As long as its for the better is all i say... :)

One more change that i cannot tolerate is this summer heat in Mumbai.. it cant get hotter... gosh... am desperately waiting for the rains...
