Understanding the Era we are in 📜
We are in an Era which seems to be filled with glow, spark, and glitters. An Era which is very new to Mankind, because nothing as such ever existed before.
Because in the past, the whole dynamics of the World was different. It used to take many days & weeks for a message/letter/news to travel from one place to another, the transportation system was mainly animals & then it shifted to Bullock Carts & Bicycle for land, Ships for seas. And then new & fastest mode of transportation came into existence.
Exchange System (Currency) was batter system, where things were exchanged to gain different things & commodities.
And the movements of tribes were well-established, and hardly they used to travel from one place to another. Which made it possible for them to preserve their culture, language, lifestyle, code of conducts, and standard of living.
“But then the World entered into a new Era,” an Era which was new to Mankind, developments which were unknown & beyond imagination took place, and Fiat Money became the new mode of exchange, and technological developments boosted at such a high speed that messages/news/information started to spread within seconds, and more than that ‘People got exposed to different languages, cultures, lifestyles, standard of living, desires & passions, ways of living, different ideas of purpose of life, goals & ambitions of life, success & failure concepts, life role models & motivation, influences & choices, devices & smartphones, computers & laptops, internet & WiFi, business models & digital transactional methods, heightened emotions & feelings via Movies, Dramas, YouTube, Food & Cuisines, etc…’
All these things, around 30 – 40 years ago, was all “alien (unknown)” to mankind. Before people used to gather in open spaces to listen to stories/news/happenings, and sit together to spend some quality family time, relationships with family, relatives & neighbours were very strong, and communication skills & humanity was present in most of them!
“But then the World got introduced to an Era,” where due to lots of exposure of tons & tons of information, opinions, suggestions, advices, perspectives, experiences, fame & popularity, “humanity entered into a zone of confusion”, an endless hole of confusion, where the word ‘Success’ has more than thousands of meanings, and so do ‘Failure’, forget about other words & vocabulary.
In the Era, where people are heading towards “Virtual Reality, where they are far away from the True Reality around them,” and trying to find a escape route from the present, because the confusion has increased to such an extent, where people are unable to gain clarity and stay connected with the reality around them.
This is the Era, where depression, anxiety, panic attacks, and suicides are at the peak, because of the “unimaginary standards & benchmark set by the society”, Where people are completely unaware about their own language, cultures & customs, and ready to adopt way of life which Influencers, Media, Movies, & Magazines are feeding into their minds.
“We are living in an Era, where reading this message may seem alien to many of them, because they are born after 2000,” and completely unaware about the World which existed at the time of their parents & grandparents!
Yes! We have entered into an Era, where people have stopped thinking for themselves, and act blinding on things which are been feed into their minds by various types of Media, which is far away from “their own reality”.
This Era is an Era, where hardly anyone have time to think about their own life, their actions, their principles & values, their moral & ethics, their death, their purpose of life, and why exactly they are sent/born on this Earth!
Because nowadays, Everyone is only concerned about Money & becoming a billionaire, but noone is interested in taking care of their parents, relatives & neighbours, and humanity is lost into the darkest of oceans, and confusions & explosions of all kind of information (true & false) are spread across, where anyone can hardly breathe the air of Truth!
Yes, we are living in an Era, where Youth are clueless about their responsibilities & duties, and following their endless passions & desires, which is solely focused on themselves, and noone around.
“For those like me, who were born before 2000, the World seems alien to us, because we saw the beauty of simple life in villages & town, which is no more to be found, because today Materialism is at it’s peak, and Divine Guidance is buried deep within!”
A Strange Era we are living in! A Strange Era! Indeed 😔
