This article is dedicated to all my pals who have some what become BLOCK #$%^ HEADED & HEARTED.
When I was young i always thought that money is a just a mean to meet our daily needs in life.As I grew up, i saw my parents working hard to make a good living, taking care of me and my brother and not forget their dream of making a big house and few cars.
In this entire process of working hard their desginationsand incomes both improved majorly but one thing they never seemed to look down upon any person due their income group or profession.Interesingly they visited certain foreign lands during the early eighties which i think was quite remarkable for a couple like them to visit considering the fact that both belonged to villages (till the time they moved to a city).
I am stil proud of the fact desipte being "then foreign returned" they were culturally the same and treated all as equal.
IS IT THEY WERE AND ARE STILL VALUING THE SIGNIFICANCE OF BEING AN UTTERLY FAIR HUMAN BEING WITHOUT BEING BLOCKED BY MONEY/SUCCESS?
On the contrary when i see many of my generation indiviuals there is a certain air about most of the people about themselves,we have practically forgottenwhat is to be down to earth. Most of these people travel to foreign lands, make decent money in the start of their career, investing in properties but seems it gets the better of them and nothing is enough.
Interesingly its not intentional it is just that air of success which makes them so in-genuine fake, repulsive and walking in some one else's shoes. I really wonder does money & success changes an indiviual so much as a human being in the core.In my course of interaction with so many people, i have hardly met a soul of my generation who is not flying in the air, money oriented, gluttony and other aspects which fall in the same league.I graduated some few years back, surprisingly most of the indiviuals changed phenomenally from being a good human being tosome wierd, repulsive, over the hill top kind of people.
IS IT ALL THE FREQUENT TRAVELS, HIGH MONEY INFLOW, INCREASING PARITY POWER LEADING TO SENSE OF SUPERIORITY/PRIDE AND INGENUINITY. How sad is that !!
Hmmmm.... A noble soul's saying- Sometimes we keep improving our social persona ( the mask) when our inner mind and soul reach a stage of labelled as rot.
" Block Headed " Answer-No wonder this is just the start of our journey and we have many more lessons to learn in life, maybe something will get us back to basics at some point in life. Atleast someday !

I would say I have to disagree. You said your parents remained down to earth in their era but how do we to know that despite of your own approval, they were right? Moreover, with the ever increasing peer pressure and new found faith in self-marketing, why you think people should deny themselves for 'chance pe dance'? Regarding changes, of course people are not incorrigible and so does the relationships. Not only on negative side, some change for positive things and turn themselves into better human beings.
Well in that forever loop of self marketing, all we care about the social acceptability only. AS for the word incorrigible it can never be used in positvity.
In my experience, positive change is what one feels for social acceptability their attitude generally turns for the worst. Believe me I am from the same generation.
