Traditions poking nose in studies...isn't it??

A 'weird' type of topic but as you all know 'thinking' will remain 'thinking'. It's my habit nowadays to take up serious topics and I can't get apart this bound now, silly but true. There's such an atmosphere around me that traditional processes make more importance in persons' life. If we talk about the vicinity I'm living in.....there people believe in resting and living a tension-free life....where finding moments of pleasure is their habit. But again I say that a balance is a must to be kept for a better result in any sort of action.

Last year, it was the time of a festival called Navaratri, where in Gujarat they celebrate it by Garba or Dandiya. So it was usual for them to celebrate it till late at night. Then it was obvious that youngsters used to show the maximum presence there. It gave them a chance or else they weren't able to attend school that time. At times I asked them whether don't they feel 'awkward' ignoring the schools during festivals and they said 'no'.....a sort of an irresponsible attitude. It wasn't that they excelled in their studies before the festival seasons would occur, but were ignorant there as well. I don't want my words to hurt someone's sentiments but that's what the truth is.

This sense of enjoyment in people have took such a drastic step forward that it is impossible to bring back their serious attitude. It's not that don't be a part of traditional event and even we are no one to stop them from doing so but negligence towards their work is just destructive. Nothing can be as greater than anyone's responsibilities as I mentioned in one of previous blogs. This is even a sort of 'hangout' where they just give away all sort of frustration (that maybe or may not be there :-P) or dilemmas they are facing but mind that this should not cross over this limit. Not only festivals but even rituals, stereotypes play the same role in affecting the studies which is a drawback for society but not only studies even employment gets affected at times. Now after so much of head-banging over this issue, I feel that at least a minor idea to be away from irresponsible attitude can be given, so till then again stay tuned for furthermore silly but interesting topics.
