Dad used to give us a measly Rs. 1000/- per month,
in that we were not only able to eat
stomachs fill,
but we were able to
save too!!!
Now we earn a sum of 20K+,
we have no idea
where it goes, let
alone saving it!!
Which was better,
the former or the latter???
6
subjects per sem, 6 different teachers!
One project since we joined
and just one manager!!
Which was better, the former or the
latter???
We
used to make notes;
we used to study
for ranks!!
Now we scan thru our mails;
we struggle for our ratings!!!
Which was better, the former or the
latter???
We have
still not forgotten the people
in the
next section!!!
Now we don’t even know
who sits
in the next
cubicle!!!
Which was better, the former
or the latter???
After
getting back from a tiring play,
we
used to do our home work!!
Now who
knows/cares about home;
all we do is
just work!!!
Which was better, the
former or the latter???
We knew
our history and economics!!
Now let
alone reading books,
we don’t even
catch up with the daily news!!!
Which
was better, the former or the latter???
We had an
aim in life;
behind our backs we had
our teachers!!
Now we have no idea
about the
future nor do we find any
one who would tell us anything!!!
Now just ask yourself,
which was better,
the former or the
latter????
Those were the golden days..during tests, i used to pray in school prayer for the absence of teacher taking tests..where all that innocence got lost!!
nice post
nicely compiled
good
I feel a mixture of both “former and latter”……..
very good
I truly enjoyed this post and esp loved the one about homework and work. How times/attitudes have changed. I guess that is why older people always have fond memories of their younger days.
very well written, i must say .this is the true pic of life ……….!
we only treasure things when we lose them . so better we cherish r present if not even that will bcome the thing of the past
