The Moral Update

It is quite a dichotomous world that we are thriving and striving in today.
Social media gets updated quite regularly with the hypocritical ideologies that have been accepted as societal guidelines by most, and welcomed and embraced by Team- Dogma. Off late, Gen Y has decided to shed some light upon how our belief system is flawed, about how unconscious we are with regard to the rules and regulations we abide to.
I am guessing most people must have come across posts/tweets/messages that talk of how on the one hand wearing a crop top is unacceptable but a tube blouse and sari works perfectly. These are examples of how our thought process is biased and closed to correction by anyone who is not a part of them-  a non conformist who is obviously indecent and a threat to society
On the other hand, we have a society that wants to be technologically updated, globalized, harmonious and cross cultural in nature so as to create the most magnificent melting pot that ever was. We wish to be perceived as intellectual;intelligent; updated; knowledgeable and game changers of our generation.

A passing thought turned into an inspiration for this post, and I thought...maybe in this age of evolution and revolution, we need to update something that all of us have had in our lives since our minds learnt to grasp and understand- MORALS ! I know one can't help but think 'preach mode on' right now, but I have to be honest to the prospective nun that lives in me since the time I left Loreto Convent. In our generation, here are few things that can be commonly diagnosed-

• The feeling of being so much more intelligent than the rest
• The feeling of being the most doomed
• The feeling of escaping to a better land  (maybe Tomorrowland )

And in the time when most people and websites shall claim to offer you the best info on updates and novelties which promise to make your life better, here is Bajstar listing down for you some words/emotions/traits/qualities that you may want to update-

To our 1st

When the morning skies light up the sun,

when the salty sea breeze is on the run, 

when lightning strikes and fills the heart with fear,

when the clouds come pouring upon us down here,

my body and soul is thinking of you babe,

my heart in deprivation, losing its shape.

I wonder how it was before when I knew you not,

up above felt dead dark, the sun scorching hot,

but now it all seems to blossom bright with beauty,

the days are all calm, the nights not so moody,

each passing whiff of wind, caressing gently the cheek,

the rowdy raging summer sun, now warm and meek,

My love, my darling, how your touch has transformed all,

I know I went tumbling, but I loved this very fall,

you bring out the best in me and all around,

the pure sparkle of your eyes, nowhere else can be found,

I want to say how thankful I am,

Be mine now, forever be my man.
