TIME TO CHANGE , man!!!

Yes Sir , those were the words that got stuck in my mind as I did the passage . Umm..could have asked the same question to Sajal Sir, but maybe at that point it was irrelevant to discuss. Oh I’m so sorry readers…I went a bit deep missing the intro part.
Few days ago, I did a passage on “Mime” at the English workshop (Chrysalis). A well composed piece; it was basically an extract from a Mimic’s notes on the days when people turned up at the theatres to catch up the Mimes for the evening amusements. The piece dealt with the brainchild of various directors and technicians , the hidden intensity of an actor to portray the characters and connect them with the spectators of the arena.
Everything seemed fine with the passage…but while the author showed a disappointment regarding the fading away of those mimicry art and respective degradation in the quality of the same , my little brainy boy started knocking me. Wazzup??? Hey Bro, isn’t that a natural stuff…!!!! ~ brainy boy immediate response.
Umm..why??
Oh boy…. You are in the 21 st century. Don’t you realize????? Those 86400 seconds are now no longer a big deal. It’s a wink of an eye, dear. Packed up routine, diaries filled with appointments , cell phones in the active state …. And you still feel that you have time to engage yourself in those lengthy modes of entertainment… grrrrhhhh..!!!!!!
Brainy disappeared. Within the woods of my cranial nerves now I guess. I scratched my head up n down to check Brainy. Well yes, he has gone back.
And yes, Now I realize certainly those words were true. WHERE IS THE TIME, MAN?????????
True. Very True. While tracing the life of the modern man, it is quite realizable how badly he is stuck in those work traffic zone. Life is a lot more complicated issue now. And eventually, the inner thought process have become perplexed. The market is damn competitive outside , and so willingly or unwillingly you are in the rat race. And when you are out in the ground , simply it is do or die.
At this juncture , it is indeed natural the tastes and moods take up a varied road. It no longer traces those earlier modes , but bit by bit changes its orientation. And the main theme is : TO BE SHORT N COMPACT.
Those daily doses of entertainment are still prevalent , but in a much compact version. You can’t have a whole evening to gain a visual pleasure and let your mind play with those art of mimicry , but you need to be served with a dish that’s catchy and fits in your entertainment curriculum easily.
Clean and Clear. If the minds are set to produce such modes of entertainment , you won’t possibly find brains who would devote time for those mimics. The so called dedicated brains are now working upon more interesting projects that the modern man can relate to with more ease.
The illustration, as I did, was more based on entertainment features but it is true for each n every aspect of our life. The daily gadgets we use , the daily norms we follow have accelerated their pace to keep up with the changing times. Nothing is permanent, dear. Harsh, but true. The word ‘monotony’ and ‘boredom’ are so frequent that the quest for a change , the hunt for something new is always up on the ladder.

‘Dhan te naa..ta naa naaa..!!!’… Oh ..My Brainy Boy is happy. I know why. Ultimately, I could pen down what he was scribbling in my tiny grey zone!!!!!Phew…
