Guys ,
Just wanted to Segway into a related topic ...it just got me thinking and I 'had' to share it with you.
So its said , now , being part of these times , with the monumental changes that's happening in this generation- Technology revolution that's re-defining everything , unlimited choices , big life style changes , less mobility , faster pace of life , not being able to live in the moment , in essence more n more stress everyday ....its said these are all the maladies of the new age we are in....
and then I compare it against my Bench mark , those golden days at HAL right ?
HAL was our Domain and for its citizens , that was the all compassing world in which they lived . The days of life in a closed economy and public sectors , so we could say , our parents were able to pace their life in a much regulated and slower rate , enjoyed the smaller things in life and the good things that lead to quality .......so maybe .. not that much stress ...but then if you ponder a little more I remember , there was a time when we were in middle & high school and a series of Untimely deaths were happening all around.. a streak when the scary moniker of "Heart attacks limited" was attached to HAL. Those were the times when men in their prime were being culled by heart attacks , very untimely and in most cases with no clues of their ill health or upcoming tragedy. people used to be left in a state of shock , in knowing so n so person who was very active died suddenly.
My point is ...So then, is there any truth in blaming the times we live in?...Is it really the evil behind all fallout's that are happening today ? and I don't just mean health and stress .
Sorry if its a stupid topic and you don't want to get into it...just disregard. I just felt compelled thinking of subject of the email , and it got me to write this length email

....One of those days ....
cheers
