I remember the time when call rates were so high of the telecom operators that we seldom talk to our relatives and friends. Each time we talk to relatives gives us enormous happiness and relief.
Yet the talk was never finished but that has to be because of high charges. So much remains unspoken, lots of talks and news left unshared but then starts wait for the next conversation, it gives us excitement to wait till the next time and also helps in bringing us all closer…
Now, naturally, time has changed. Call rates are at all-time low and landline phone is totally free but the 1 thing that has changed and often hurts me is we don’t have time to talk to our relatives. It’s not the money now; we simply don’t want to talk. The charm of talking has vanished.
For me, I talk to all my close relatives and friends often but time comes when I want to call somebody but I, honestly, fine no one. It may be because to whom I like to talk most, I can’t call her often, but its 100% true that we have lost all our desires of talking to our relatives…
We have time for everything but not for our own people? Have we really become so self-centered?
I feel lucky that my family is very social and always busy in relatives. Its only relatives that are going to help us despair and will be with us in every situation… :)
