As the metro train whizzed past Yamuna bank metro station a
conventional rather agitating sight caught my gaze which I couldn’t avoid
staring at. This is what exactly happened when I was on my way to Laxmi Nagar, a
pre adult couple in their mid 20s cozied and curled up against each other over
the sitting platform meant for the waiting passengers engrossed in a passionate
liplock. I guess they had no metro to catch rather they were running out of
time to do too many things all together. Which left a few of those senior
citizens red faced for sure. At that instance I was bewildered but then I
forced myself out of the shell and savoured every moment of it. To quote a mere
coincidence, it was today morning when going through the times of india, I came
across an article on youths going obscene by public display of affection. And this
topic brought out a very healthy discussion between me and my elder sister. She
admitted to her fear that how startled she gets whenever she enters a park or
recreational place with her kids as you never know behind which trunk you find a
seed of obscenity being sowed and lustful couples charging and pouncing at each
other as if that it was that one last time they have got to make love before
the world ends. We talked how dreadful place a park has become to be with
elders and kids, and this thing has spread its fangs steadily. Parks are no
longer a place to take a stroll around. Wrong message is being emitted for the
generations to come and worst, it charges some of those frustrated singles with
negative vibes to commit hilarious crimes like rape and eve teasing. In most of
the cases the ones who are innocent and unaware get victimised.
If I had a wish to make to the almighty I would have sought for
satisfaction to prevail. A sense of accomplishment from inner self is what
pushes us forward. But the degrading inner self and morale values is anything
to take a clue from, we are definitely heading towards a world where
testosterone and estrogen overtakes the emotional and relationship values. Some
pseudo intellectuals call it modernisation, I call it bullshit. The simple
question which I throw at them is, during the course of public display of
emotions why do they tend to overlook the surrounding. They might escape away
saying, how does that bother anyone ? Yeah how does that bother me but my
penultimate question is, what makes you so engrossed that you overlook the
surroundings or do they really think that it showcases their genuine love for
their partner. Answer is draped around the question itself. A lusty soul is
what I see and so do the people around who feel little awkward when they are
with their elders and kids. Reason is precise, a wrong message is being sent to
the people around. And more over let me see if you can garner the same amount
of guts to repeat it in front of your parents and relatives.
The impatience and hormonal
imbalance has reached a new level altogether and to some extent the existing
system can be quoted guilty in setting up the stage for problems to cash upon
and has certainly led forward a helping hand for the problems to multiply. From
one side we are barb wired with old fashioned custom and from the other side we
are engrossed matching pace with the fast developing world and its outdoing
madness. Most of us recognise the scheme of things but a majority of us succumb
to the laid trap and end up doing immoral activities which lead to the
embarrassment to most of us. So my only point is that why can’t we keep our
libidos in control and put most of the unwanted problems at bay. That way hotel
owners will be a much happier person and our next generation will not get a
wrong message for the things to inherit.
