the calculator world
recently i happened to have an overnight journey by bus... a midnight bus transfer upset my peaceful sleep... and having nothing to do to get back the lost sleep i happened to listen a couple of techie brats engaged in privat con... (due apologies)... they got my attention, when one told asked other guy about the news that he heard of the suicide attempt of his girl friend... the casual response that followed up was quite shocking... "yeah... i left the relationship... when i knew that she had two sisters... man i cant get into a trouble... taking the responsibility of a family which already burdoned with three girls..." i just tempted to ask... "then what about the relationship that you have entered??"... but restrained myself and let the reality sink in... welcome to the calculator world.. the world of profit... where there is no space for loosers... you must shall profit from every transaction... every relationship.... every second... and it's only the green count that matters... wheater it is a blood relationship... or friendship... or association of any sort.. the measure is what you have made out of it... badly need to readjust... badly need to tune up to live in this world...
