Wouldn't it be great if every one of us were human?
If every one us had that sense of humanity?
People are getting rich in terms of wealth and money and big houses, but what about sentiments? What about sensibility? As we grow older, we are losing the sense of right and wrong I believe. Today an old woman was standing in the metro and nobody even bothered to offer her a seat, and we talk of righteousness? She wasn't that aware I guess, otherwise she would have gone for the seat reserved specially for the old. But then, we have these seats for the old and specially abled because no one is willing to offer them a seat in the normal scenario. Had this been the case we would have never needed special seats or special queues for them. Fight for your right they say. But why do you have to fight for it if that is your right? People would still skip queues, cheat and take what is not theirs. They can even fight for what they have done wrong.
Nobody is willing to sacrifice their own comfort or to sacrifice anything for that matter. What would be the difference between humans and machines if we forget about the one thing which differentiates us; Emotions. Yes, its emotions that we lack today. Someone suffering , we turn our backs. Someone needs help, we turn our backs. We are turning backs to our own family and friends, let alone other people who are nobody to us.
This breaks my heart. Lack of understanding, lack of compassion towards others. There's just I, me and myself all the time. It is sad that there are not many souls left who think of others, who think about others. And if our generation is behaving is this way, think of the generations yet to come. Its high time we realise this! Let's just do one good deed a day. Like I gave up my seat just to see that beautiful smile on that Aunty's face. Being thankful or just an usual greeting to someone. Let's spread smiles. Let's do one thing everyday for others. And trust me, it'll make your day. The fact that you did something for someone else, the happiness you gave them, their smile will definitely make your day. Let's pledge to spread smiles! A small step, but a much needed one.
