I witness hatred, remorse, regret and apathy on a everyday basis. We all do. We ignore ethos, respect and a long forgotten word on which the modern society was built on.... Honour. We live a narcissitic life. this may seem like hypocrisy to the ones who may know me only superficially,
An hypocrite i may be, but my rants make perfect sense to the people of my wavelength. We may be branded different and maybe by some as idiots, but we are of descript values and morals. And on the topic of which, i feel the current culture is done with. What i am talking about is upstanding morals and ideals. I am not talking about keeping the law or upholding dignity but of values, not for the sake of "having too" but wanting too. Even the movies today, but a few, promote having low morals and behaving like a scoundrel. Movies of Vijay, Dhanush or silambarasan glamourzse the role of the road side rascal to a point that the behaviour is picked up and influenced the normal people. Now the arguement maybe tht people have the tendency to think on their own,make their own decisions, but such is not the case normally. In my observation, a lot of people i know lack the tendency to form their own opinions. But thats beyond the point of dicussion and maybe for a different post. Coming back to topic, the populace on a whole has accepted the loss of morals and values and even feel very comfortable in this. They find stepping on the smaller guy acceptable and in fact sometyms it is found to be commendeble by some. They believe eve teasing or demonizing the modern woman is acceptable, because after all they deserve it. Its jus a modern watered down version of the salem witch trials.
And also The rampant nepotism and cronyism is the norm and bribery and cheating is allright as long as yu dont get caught. The general consensus is that if you are rich, you are doing something right and even if it is morally unacceptable by the usual standards. Why not. Chivalry, bravery ,courage, idealism and the need to stand up for what is right are after all outdated. This genertion is the death of ideals.When you have complete freedom without a sense of morality to restrain it, you have anarchy. I am amused by the irony that is my life. While on the one hand i am annoyed and disgusted by the complete disregard of human decency, I am amazed by the complete lack of remorse with which such actions are carried, and ultimately justified.
As i used to whisper sweet nothings into your ears, all yu did was smiled them through.
