Where are we headed to???????

Since ancient times Music has been inspiring the lives of Mankind, touching various aspects of Human-hood. Music is divine. Music is a learning tool. Music crosses all barriers reaching hearts and energizing souls.

Music has evolved a great way with lyrics entwined in to it giving the most refreshing experience of Life. There is a music for every mood, occasion, interest & age. The lyrics has made the music more understandable, audible and humming. Lyrics has taught many things ranging from scriptures to philosophy to humanity.

These lyrics which are a gift of languages these days are going awry. I agree everything changes with time. But is the change for the good. Are our children learning humanity or getting away from it. Is Are these lyrics imbibing virtues thru music or vices. Lets have a glance, what do the new Bollywood songs have to teach us.

1. Matlabi ho ja jara matlabi. And sooraj dooba hai yaaro 2 ghoont nashe ke maaro.
    What an aspiration of the youth who listen to this. Forget youth, kids hum this. This message is loud n clear. Post evening when your work ends, forget the home, go to bar have some alcoholic beverage cos the world is not worth it. WOW.

2. Take this. 4 Bottle vodka, kaam mera rojka, na muzhko koi roke na kisi ne roka. An idiot who drinks 4 quarters of liquor is glorified by the censor & passed on to the kids as an ideal to do more. Great going, liquor business to boom up in the next coming years when your teens grow up. Please invest in liquor stocks and earn at the cost of next generation being alcoholic.

3. Please carve the principles & virtues with our teens n kids singing, Saari Night Besharmi ki height. Good. Really Good. I don't have words to say when a father hears his daughter (son too) singing this.

4. Oh and How can I miss that PUNJABIYAN te toooo. What the duck is that toooo.

The repertoire is long. The pet names and common names of women are weaved nicely to make Munnis, Sheelas, Baby, Salma, Mary ashamed to have such names (which I doubt, but still). Or may be fathers cursing themselves why I named my daughter Mary or why did I've to call her munni.

The point is, "People where are we heading to?" Can't entertainment be be entertainment without vulgarity. Boob shows, Cleavages, Near cunt areas is all this our children get to see on any channel and this is propagated as NORMAL. We keep asking WHAT'S WRONG? The world is changing. I question WHAT'S RIGHT???? And this is the question the GEN-NEXT needs to ask.

Is entertainment all about SEX SEX and SEX termed as ENTERTAINMENT?
Are the ads spared?
Why do we need a woman skimpily dressed showing how good tyres are for cars?
How many men get themselves shaved by a woman daily and hands moved voluptuously on their cheeks by semi naked babes?
Do we really need women cladded in two-pieces to show the virtues of a Mentholated soap?
Does driving bikes get you women to sleep with? Are there no features of the bike a man would look to if its not capable of attracting a woman?
Does DEOS creates hyper-activates the VOMERO-NASAL organ of Humans especially women so much that she can't wait to be fucked right away, who bothers if its a street and people are watching?

All these lyrics with humming music, Ads with extravagant stuff pouring the emphasis on significance of having a mate (or Mates), and all the media which wants to show that the only thing human being is born to do is attract a mate/s and keep doing it for the lifetime, I have only ONE question for you!

DO you teach this or imbibe this to your children or would like your children to really do this when they grow up?
Or Would you just pass it off saying the World is changing and we have to adapt to the nudity and change the principles of Mate attraction and selection in the animal kingdom to genuinely be the animals we are on the path too.

I always say in all my posts, ADAPT & EVOLVE. But this I feel is Anti Evolution! 

The Lunchbox-- A sumptous meal

www.refreshinglyyours.blogspot.com

Lunchbox is a reflection of the routine urban life and the dry, rather dried up emotions. Oh wait, are they really dried up or just desiccated waiting for the sprinkle of wet showers to rejuvenate  back, bounce back to normalcy!

This is not a review on Lunchbox, but a review of a normal human being strapped into abnormal ways of life.

Why on the earth we tend to trust a total stranger but our own people whom we daily live with! We justify ourselves of all the deeds we do to stay or rather gain happiness only to realize that we are in to a deep pit which leads to anywhere but happiness. This reminds me of the lyrics of the famous gazal sung by late Jagjit Singh – “Tere jahan mein aisa nahi ke pyar na ho, jahan ummid ho uski wahan nahi milta”. Now the story begins with why do we expect from where we expect?

Because, we are just human. We don’t even bother to care for what is served in the menu. Its granted. It has to be there. Big deal. And what when we stop getting it. Ya, that’s when the deal is really big.

So what point do I have to make saying all this. This is all known to everybody reading it.  If you read my previous posts (not many) there is a single bottom line message. Adapt and evolve.

We all want is ME. MY Happiness, MY Children, MY Job, MY Career, MY ambitions, all MY MY MY & Me. There is no space for the YOU. No care for all the above of the YOU, whom we deal with every day in different relations.

Can we adapt to saying, I’m yours, rather than You are mine. Can we adapt to a small change of caring for little more abandoned emotions of the YOU in our life. Some would say, I do it and the YOU in my life don’t even realize. That’s because we don’t make them realize. Those can adapt to make the YOU realize by just stopping doing everything done everyday for that YOU and see the evolution in their life. And yours too….

Packed with emptiness, hollowness and monotony of human life, and nicely wrapped in gestures rather than words, the lunchbox proved to be a sumptuous meal.
