Why wouldn’t the teens out here become a national best seller? I
was thinking about this thing from a very long time, many reasons came to my
mind, in fact when I first typed this article I had included some age old
reasons such as 'parents want their child to study!' They would want their child
to become professionals and would make them join coaching classes, ask for
marks and for more marks! Uff!
At the end, when I asked myself does the reason sound
justifiable? A big NO popped up instantly. My parents never forced me to study
round the clock! And there are so many parents around to whom it would not be
fair if I say they would expect things from their kids.
Then it came to my senses, there are so many other stuffs which
kills the creativity within. We are encroached with so much virtual friends on
facebook. Instant messengers have made it easier to connect virtually but what
we have lost is the essence to connect in person.
We have come to that point where it’s hard for a kid to have dinner
without replying the whatsapp messages, if that is the situation, how can he
find time to read good books and write a good one?
How can a kid write books when he doesn’t even have time to talk
to his parents properly? He has to check the constant news feeds, reply to all
the pings and many more.
Rule out the idea of writing a book, there is a drastic downfall
of in-person contacts among us.
Isn’t there something like productive use of virtual stuffs?
Where we can limit the usage of things which are unproductive?
I guess we seriously need one of those ‘something’, that
something where the essence of connecting to other person is developed,
something where ‘The real’ is preferred over the virtual. Else, hard time is
surely awaited in future!
True fact...!!
