Why Lose Our Identity? Why Not Change?

Today sitting in a Mall I realised how fast is today's generation and how small is today's world. So fast that a person walking alone will feel completely left out. Those days are gone when people used to walk miles alone to get water. Today we are thirsty and a waiter brings water for us. We don't have the time to care about things happening around us. The problem is not that we don't want to care rather the problem is we don't feel the need to care. We have become selfish. We are still not the present generation. We are born in the world of 90's. Talk to a 12 year old child and you will realise how much practical their generation is. I have felt many a times talking to today's generation that genes did pass on to them from their predecessors but maybe due to the influence of today's self-centred world their effect has completely wiped out or if it's present it's negligible. Time flies. Obviously it does. Doesn't it? Talk to anyone belonging to today's generation and your heart will give you the right answer that yes time flies ..and the person you are talking to will justify this answer. We have come a long way. Those days are gone when elders blessings used to be the sign of a good omen. When children used to wait for their grand father so that they could get an extra good luck for their exam because they believed that a good luck from their grand father mattered. Today's generation has modernised. They don't care about people around them. Sentiments are like steps of a ladder. Sentiments of elders is a different thing. Let's consider sentiments of a girl whose traumatised due to a boy. Sentiments in every sphere of life today are mere words. The reason is people have no time to think about sentiments in this fast pacing world. Children are in a hurry to go to school, go to play. Elders are in a hurry to reach their office on time. Hurry creates worry. And the most important issue to worry about according to me is that human beings are losing their identity day by day. Yes, what is the only thing that makes humans different from other creatures on this earth? It's their sentiments, emotions. And humans are forgetting this. Not totally but yes they are up to some extent. Humans need to understand this fact that their hectic, fast pacing lives are making them lose their identity slowly.
