Its been an awfully long hiatus. No blog posts. None. Barely any tweets and some random Facebook updates here and there. That’s about it.
This is primarily because of a self-lacking, narcissist motivation that led me to believe that I was beyond and over blogging. Only for a brief moment though.
Lazy as ever, bored out of my barely legal bald head, and jet-lagged from an overtly schedule of inane rituals, I decided to read the newspaper.
Here’s where it all (my ridiculous journey of pop-tarts and Twinkies) became oblivious.
The headline read as follows:
“A 13-Year-Old Takes On Everest, and Sets Off a Debate.”
In an another incident I came across this headline:
“16 year old Aussie Schoolgirl Sails Solo Around World.”
I would agree that there are plenty more examples of such ridiculously insane conquests made by the age groups falling between 15 to 20 years.
Wtf?
The other day my niece, came back home with her class four results. She’d scored 96% marks.
This was getting crazier by the minute.
Levels of expectations, not to mention the cut-throat competition have produced a different breed of humans. Today’s generation is so fast that most managers sitting in sea-facing cabins are clenching their over-sized egos.
At the speed with which these youngsters are taking on the world, retirement doesn’t look too far ahead.
**Just an inane thought that’s been puzzling my mind over the past week.
Are you welcomed by calls from sales-representatives early in the morning, during a client meeting, when you’re out drinking with the boys, while having/making dinner, while negotiating that last bit of fudge on that overtly sundae, doing your homework, filling/evading taxes, baking cookies for your darn kids, strangling your wife (kidding about that last one, even though I’m sure most of you do) from Airtel Broadband?
