17th October 2011, 6:17 PM. I was in R City Mall, ghatkopar, Mumbai, doing shopping for my sister Nishtha with my friend Rahul. Suddenly I saw a pair of high-heel sandals walking towards me with beautiful pair of legs on which black micro-mini skirt was hanging with pink sleeveless top. She was wearing large metallic silver color danglers, light pink lipstick, small heart shaped diamond pendant and very sweet cologne. You all must be thinking that I am a pervert, but this is how every bachelor stares at God’s precious gifts and this terminology is called NSP i.e. Nayan Sukh Prapti.
She was looking like very high profile girl with lots of cash in her bank accounts. “India is developing at very high speed”, you can calculate this speed by very simple equation:
Equation No.1: “Size of skirt is inversely proportional to Modernization & Modernization is directly proportional to development of nation.”
But modernization doesn’t mean that you should forget your own ethical values, your emotions, and your inner self.
Let’s continue with our interesting story… The girl whom I was describing in above paragraph was actually a lady (I really want to meet her Gym instructor) and she was with her 9-10 yrs old son. Her son was playing game on his mom’s brand new Apple iPhone 4G (whose current price is 35000Rs). He was walking in his own thoughts; suddenly he slipped and crashed on the floor. His knees were bleeding and Apple iPhone 4G broke into exactly two pieces.
Then I heard the first words of his mother after this small accident and thanks to her who helped me in making another equation to calculate the developing speed of nation.
She almost cried “What the fuck????....you broke new iPhone, you rascal…” and slapped her son in front of more than hundred people. She ran and collected two pieces of iPhone and again slapped her son.
Equation No.2: “Number of slangs you use is directly proportional to you know english very well and English is directly proportional to literacy rate which is again directly proportional to development of nation.”
“Do you know how much this cost??” she said.
Her son was weeping and said mom my knees are bleeding. Then she tied her hanky on his wounded knees, grabbed his hand and walked towards iPhone store…
The floor beneath my feet was about to sink by her reaction.
People became materialistic; they became very practical and modern. But do you think that by this kind of modernization we can make developed nation?
I am not opposing development and modernization, what I want to say that is don’t loose your emotions, your values for the name of modernization.
If someone cries for others pain, then people say him/her ‘An Emotional fool’. In my opinion the person who uses these two words together ‘Emotional fool’ is the biggest fool. My friends don’t forget the words of Charlie Chaplin “If you think from your heart, if emotions are your weakest point then you are the strongest person in this world.”
That lady should think about her son first and then about iPhone. The Bible teaches us that our thoughts are the determining factor which controls our actions. No one can consistently perform differently than the way they think; therefore, we cannot change our actions without changing our thinking. Our emotions are linked directly to how we think.
I am giving you one task, read the below line, understand it and think are we really modern?
“Things are to be used and people are to be loved….but in today’s world people are used and things are loved.”…Strange world…Strange people.
Think about it my dear friends…till then adios, keep smiling.
Yours only
