Interesting facts!!

I once read an interesting and funny story in which a high profile and young MBA holder, who also happens to be a banker and an investor, chats with a cool and smart farmer in a village on changing his lazy lifestyle... This fellow tries hard to convince the farmer to quit such a lazy and boring life and sell off his farm to grow faster and enjoy the life in the fast lanes. The best part is that the farmer disagrees and counter questions the young fellow with a simple   " Then, what will happen ? " 


The young fellow tries harder to explain and comes out with a lot of happening probabilities for every counter question like the farmer can get some good grands and can start his own business, can get a nice house in the city life, have luxurious cars, have a beautiful wife, have kids etc etc.... finally he claims that after saving a lot of money for himself, he can buy a nice farm house and live a peaceful retired life and relax till the end of his life  ;)


In return, the farmers simply asks him, " What Am i doing now then ?? "


Its really funny, how we make a circle of our life. Ofcourse, the above example is not a practical one in life and Iam sure no one agrees to spend their youth as a retired person with nothing to do but look after the farm, the sky above and relax.. 


As someone has rightly quoted, "The grandest of all laws is the law of progressive development. Under it, in the wide sweep of things, men grow wiser as they grow older, and societies better. "


Today societies are changing and so are the lifestyles. People meet more on the internet than in real lives. That doesnt exclude me as well as Iam not a real social creature.Our generation is more closer virtually and one good advantage is that the world looks very small now. We can talk, we can befriend, we can consult or we can share to anyone in the world even if we have never met them.


Technology changes everything. Can you imagine, we can now access theatres on the web, can explore movies, can book tickets, can even book a snack and can book the seats of our choice. 


Everything is available at your doorstep, on your screen.   :))
