So there is an urgent need to stop oment and think about when we are actually
heading - is it development or destruction ? e haye to wait untill people have grown so much
apart from each other that we cannot ring of our own spices due to our mindless greed,
or can we still mend our ways ?
To answer this question, I help of that most magnificent of human leelings
hope. I sincerely wish that intelligent spices on earth, would take our fair share
of responsibility and si the path we should lollow Though mankind will
possibility last lor a to its determination and sheer ingenuity, we have to make
sure we do not somewhere along the way.
We live in wonders and miracles. It has been called the 'Age of Science', and
difi'erent changed in the preceding centuries have been attributed to science.
This is true, it is only one side of the coin. The filp side is that as we have advanced
more in the field , something fundamental to humanity has been left behind. Values
such as empathy and concern for our, fellow human beings are gradually being ended due to the
onslaught ofour ever - evolving lifestyles, aided by the marvels oftechnologies and advancements.
Take the example ofthe Internet. On one hand, access to information and knowledge at the
click of a button is a veritable boon to everyone (especially students) and this has made our lives
much simpler. On the other hand, it has severely limited actual contact with teachers, friends and
elders. Thus, the learning that a person gains is incomplete as he or she cannot easily take the
advice ,hat-another person can give on the basis of knowledge and practical experience that is at
his or her disposal.
Today, a small child can access and navigate the internet with an ease that still astounds
those from the older generation. But what is even more astounding is the neglect of the basic
human traits of friendship, relationships and family values. Owing to all the technological
PD.OI.CAD O 14
advancements and the gadgets available today, children often miss out on the most enriching
childhood experimences such as playing outdoor games with friends, which apart lrom being
immensely enjoyable and physically exhilarating, also develop traits such as teamwork and discipline
at an early age.
But now when the concept of friends is gradually being limited to virtual friends on social
networking sites, one shudder to think of the implications for the personality development of a
child because the time spent with computers or mobile phones for entartainment can never really
substitute for the holistic benefits of outdoor play. Such examples can found aplenty.
Now if we compare the hustle and bustle of modern city and the peace and calm of a rustic
village life, we can see that in cities, life is a race with a variety offactors. It is a race that everyone
tries their level best to win, but nobody actually win as it never ends.
As for me, I think this age of repaid development has created at least as many problems as
it has solved, if not more. The reason is that the basic goal of life, which should be the pursuit
ofhappiness has now been replaced by the pursuit ofmoney. Money and Happiness are considered
analogus in our present society, but they €ctually are not so. In this mindless pursuit of money,
nobody has time now to appreciate the beauty of life, which consists not of multi-billion dollar
skyscrapers but a single act ol kindness to someone in a time of need.
