Where families once thrived in close-knit communities, where generations lived under one roof, and the wisdom of the elderly was revered, we now find ourselves caught in the whirlwind of a frenzied existence, detached from the core values that defined us for thousands of years; we work tirelessly for a mere paycheck, sacrificing the precious bonds with our loved ones, entrusting the education and upbringing of our children to distant institutions, as we strive to meet the ever-increasing demands of a corrupted monetary system that keeps us perpetually enslaved to the notion of financial security; the wise elders, with their wealth of experience and knowledge, are cast aside as society neglects to acknowledge the invaluable contributions they could make, allowing their wisdom to dissipate like whispers in the wind, while we foolishly pursue the elusive mirage of eternal youth and vitality; and as the sands of time continue to shift, we find ourselves consigning our elderly parents and relatives to the impersonal halls of group homes, alienating them from the warmth and love they once knew, all in the name of progress and convenience, forsaking the sanctity of familial bonds and shattering the intergenerational connections that once nurtured us; in this relentless pursuit of financial security and materialistic desires, we lose sight of what truly matters, trading the joy of togetherness for the fleeting pleasures of an empty consumerism, leaving our children stranded in a desert of neglect and isolation, deprived of the guidance and affection they so desperately need, as we chase after the elusive dream of success, unwittingly sacrificing the very essence of our humanity, disconnecting from the fundamental values that have sustained civilizations for centuries, and succumbing to the hollow promises of future that values “owning nothing” and thinking that will bring “happiness” above the sacred bonds of family and community.
