Ever wondered, why our generation is
not able to produce any epically extraordinary piece of art& literature? Why our
anger is aimed in no particular direction? And, why at all there is so much
anger boiling up in our heads? It’s because, we are letting our brain be chewed
by forces which actually are controllable, provided we try. Here is a list of
things towards which I suggest we better grow intolerant.
“Whatsapp”: Yes,
that thing! Hasn't it become one of the most annoying app? It chews away your
time, patience, and of course your brain. No matter how much you may deny this,
but I rarely across people who aren't affected by this trending trash. The
addiction is so severe, that people these days find it difficult to poop
without checking the possible new messages on their Whatsapp. And, as it still
happens to be free, people randomly keep sending messages of sheer irrelevance,
assuming that to be able to use this much-talked-about app, is an act of
empowerment.
Facebook: There
was a time, when I had thought Facebook could actually do great, if people
start focusing on things other than posting-up photographs and checking-in at
different places, just to maintain a visibility, yes this was when people from
different states and countries were uniting with the supposedly felt
solidarity, over Facebook for various issues. But, gradually I saw it getting
back down, when people just couldn't resist from putting-up selfies. It’s
become more of a selfie-book than a Facebook. Its content is somehow intriguing
because most people love drama and it’s a user friendly social networking site.
But, can any of us deny the fact that it does eat away a lot of our time, which
we could have invested elsewhere? It’s anyway all for the namesake, isn't it?
The great Indian soap opera: I fail to understand why at all we haven’t grown
intolerant towards the overly-obvious and dramatically ridiculous Indian soap
serials? They all start-up with supposedly distinctive themes but they all
end-up deliberately drowning into the same sea of loud dialogues, heavy jewellery
and gross costumes, marriages, murders, property disputes, and silly love
affairs. And, they actually provide no new approach to our way of looking at
the individual and the society. People tune their minds to these programs and
relate themselves to the characters, because they don’t have other attractive options
on the television. Unfortunately, almost every channel these days, is serving
junk wrapped in different names and packs.
Baseless trending Rap:
Anybody these days goes out and makes a music video, wearing heavy gold chains,
an awkward baggy pair of jeans, with foreign models dancing to the stupid
digital beat in the background. These rappers ‘read’ out simple and rhythm-less
lyrics to which people can barely connect. Yet, such people end-up with heavier
pockets than those who with sincerity and a message contribute to the music
industry. Though, there are a few rappers who have excelled a great deal by
labouring hard on innovating sensible lyrics but the rest others are just
popping up like mushrooms and are simply producing tracks which can in minutes
chew your brain.
Fake smart heads: Last
but not the least; avoid close encounters with people who like fake doctors
give you odd prescriptions. Such people would always tell you, to do and be
this and that. But, don’t ever forget that it is your life and you were blessed
with enough brain and heart to decide the right thing for yourself. And, thereby
I suggest you to be a daring experimentalist who could discover and shape
his/her world-view by their free and independent choice, rather than following
somebody else blindly and becoming just another copy.
I believe, there are a lot of things
getting involved in which, we end-up draining big chunk of our time and energy.
And, we can work on it only if we are able to locate and accept it. So, here
was my attempt to draw light and your attention on five of them.
