Generation today is very smart, intelligent, well informed, having clear opinion about the society they live in, things they see around…well no doubt its all good . They have hundreds of friends across the globe, thanks to social networking sites. They are always connected to the world through smart phones, smart apps, whatsapps however…
No doubt all the above takes toll like overly competitive environment, need to be their best always, need to be on top always…and probably that is the reason that they do not share a close genuine bonding with their friends, not even a few close friends. All the time I heard them talking about how they made fool of their friends , how their friends do not know or know less than them. I remember my college days when we 10 close friends would study together teaching each other things we knew and sharing notes and chatting for hours and hours without having to worry and prove that one is better than the other or one lacks some skills etc. Needless to say, we share the same warm bonding even now though we rarely meet. To me it feels like what is the fun if one needs to keep proving constantly even with one’s own friends, what fun it is if one cannot let their hair down with friends and enjoy, what fun it is if one cannot be their true self with their own friends.
