LIFE OVER MULTIPLE GENERATIONS

LIFE OVER MULTIPLE GENERATIONS

We belong to multiple generations

Have seen dramatic changes in operations.

We were walking to our schools

Now children go by school buses.

We waited for days to get telephone connection

Now everyone carries a phone for communication.

We bought rice and sugar in rations

Now all groceries delivered in minutes.

We were buying clothes in single units

Now they buy same type in multiples.

We were paying cash every time

Now we pay online all the time.

We waited in queues to watch cinema with pleasure

Now we buy the tickets online at leisure.

We worked in office during the day

Now they work from home night and day.

Owning a car was considered a luxury

Now couples own vehicles very early.

We were having one tv and watching only one channel

Now we have multiple tvs with multi channel.

We had one telephone at home on a stand

Now each one of us has a cell phone in hand.

We were writing with pen on paper to record

Now we are typing on laptop's keyboard.

We waited for middle age to own a home

Now couples build home within a decade.

We were going on a long trip once in few years

Now they plan an outstation trip on all festival holidays.

We were eating out once a while

Now they order food as they like.

Life style has changed so much

We learn to live with them as such.
