Shall India Die?

Gone back the days, when man was a social animal; i.e. who live in society, for the society and with the society. In past, we were emotional by nature. We used to love nature and attach with family members and other people in our society. We were surrounded by many relations. There was custom of greeting each other saying ‘Namaste’ bowing little bit due to respect for each other. We used to take blessings of elders in our family. We could not think of living alone.

There is no room for love and relationship. Everyone in the house wants his or her space may it be father, mother or children. We even feel trapped in family and relations and try to get rid of them as early as possible. Staying outside the house is another idea of freedom. We do not help rather; we are always busy in pulling legs of each other. So, when we do not have love, respect and time even for our family members, forget about the society. We won’t leave any chance to make our castle on grave of others.

No doubt some social changes are also responsible for this. Earlier we used to live together in native town earning our livelihood together...
