Have times changed or have people changed?
- Often wondered if that question is pertinent at all - since time is constant but people are variables.
In that context I wandered down the memory lane. In my RECENTLY PUBLISHED book RICE GRAINS IN WHEAT BARNS (my life story) I did consider this question. I narrated how people to people connect was simply human than electronic or other media. I cited the experiences of my childhood as an example - during my childhood maternal uncles used to provide the cover\shelter to escape the anger of my father whenever my father felt he could not control me any more or failed to put me in 'line'. Later my brothers took all the blame for my escapades and streamlined me in the Pre University Studies. They brought me back into limelight. Teachers were 'personal' with us and their offer of assistance to less intelligent students like me was a matter of 'taken for granted affair' . I made an effort to narrate my childhood experiences in my recent book which is published in USA.
In these days of 'precious baby' ambience and nuclearized families we are witnessing frequent occurences of sibling jealousies, gross abuse of children and children complaining against parents.
It will not be out of place to quote that 'In Norway social security officials saved several children from their irritable and violent parents and so on'...I therefore wonder if there is a perceptible change in the people and their attitudes....
