Human Relations: Death of Friendship

Call it ?œLack of Proper Time Management??or ?œChange in behavior or attitude of Human Being?? Call it ?œGift of 21st Century??or ?œOur Greediness ?? Call it ?œBeing Opportunistic??or ?œFacing Cut-Throat Competition??Call it a step to ?œAvoid Over Commitment??or a ?œprecautionary measure??Call it by any name but ?œHuman Relations??are dying and the first one to go is ?œFriendship??

In the present century, when we all are busy, we all are running behind growth and prosperity; during the time when people don?™t have time for their family members, time when parents are not having time for their kids; spouses see each other only on weekends; youngsters are too busy in making best of the available opportunities and don?™t have time for their parents/elders; when you meet your siblings only the time of festivals or family functions, do you think that you have time for your friends? Time is a constraint. So, the question here is that do we really need friends? Or we just need people to use them as a ladder for our success and growth?

Do you remember, in your school days, whom do you use to reach for your homework? Do you know, in your college life, who use to give your attendance, in your absence? Did you ever-said ?œthanks??to those people? We have become selfish. We are in competition with everybody?¦known or unknown; family or friends?¦and at times this is not a healthy competition.
