Nobody I heard was great because of the money they left over as they die. Great people are established as great only because they handed over to the next generations, concise packets of wisdom which are meticulously searched and collected from different times of life. Its on the foundations of these ideas, we built empires of new age. The maxims are merely some sentences but standing behind them are the experiences of a person waiting around for us to get grabbed. Most of them become more of clichés by the time we are blessed with maturity to understand. If by understanding a small sentence we can avoid reading life size books, then let's give it a try.
Our education stresses very less on this issue, leaving behind us a great deal of responsibility to learn them by our own. It is like handing technical workers, the tools to work but not educating them how to use nor letting them design their own tools out of their experience. However I have no right to criticize my education just because it made me what I am now. Without it, I could have written nothing like this. And those poor fellows, the low-performers at schools are not qualified enough to comment on it and finally makes it unaffected. The one definite question might have popped up in your mind. How can you say that education is not good enough, if this is the case? Its more of a fact than electron being a particle that present day education is not of much help. We see around us the so-called low performers at school establishing empires where the so-called highly qualified people finds their place for a living. The fact is that life teaches more than we learn from books. But these days, I wonder whether students are leaving behind any time to live their own lives after the mandatory injection of artificial dosage of commonly accepted wisdom. On one hand people like Vivekananda, Einstein were given an accolade for their sayings. On the other hand, nobody cares about what they said at the same time and enrolls their children in schools providing IIT coaching before they ever realized what an IIT is. So, why we praised them? For not being like us but can survive in this world with us? People are changing but values stay speculating and laughing at how much importance they are getting.
And the definition for hard work is sticking to chairs with a commercial book rather than intellectually intended in hand and being in the pose whole day long just because one is not allowed to do any other things. And the Success is scoring high in entrance to get into most ridden way in search of surprises. So stupid, isn't it? After this, only privileged are blessed with a different life but lively. After some four years from then, again in the same rat race they were not interested anymore. One thinks diploma work is worth if getting paid high. Who cares about the degree you earn? And again making the education unimportant. This way many students managed to get into the long dreamed software industry. By the time he completes his training he wakes up and dream is no more…
He starts to live in his mind in two different ways, keeping off one for weekends and the other while working. In software industry, work ethics dominate more than the work itself. Think and think till you get wink without knowing whats and whys of your thinking. Finally life becomes a mess. Guys, its my opinion. Don't care whether this is right or wrong. Now in retrospection, you continuously search for something or somebody to held blame for. Then after blaming him, drink your last cup at coffee vending machine and go home and have good sleep.
Thanks for reading…………….
