IT’s Emotions:

Sharing happiness/sorrows is one thing but “feeling” it is another..

That word is used quite a lot and of-late it has lost its actual meaning.. as ‘feeling’ something requires  lot more effort than just to hear it.

One instance I would like to quote from my personal experience:

The other day I had a call from my home informing me about my mom’s health as she was un-well, in return I just enquired as to what had happened and after few  mins I was back at my office desk, work as-usual as nothing had happened… ! It was my “Mom”, but still nothing seemed to affect.

Departing of soul takes priority than not keeping well but even in that case , what one could see is the third party(blood relatives) visits the latter’s home  and passes on his condolences , in many cases there seems to be no regret too as we could see people getting back to normal life in just about the next day.

Lets  bring happiness in the picture , Your best friend succeeds in completion of a long pending herculean task and gets into lime light for the effort put-in , we immediately call him/her back to congratulate on the achievement, but when they happen to throw a party to celebrate the happiness , we skip it.

          Initially I had this assumption that this only happened to IT employees as their work involved nothing but a routine task repeated over and over again and still expecting results to be different every time.. Guess what Einstein called it..?

“Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” Albert Einstein, (1879 - 1955)

Are we working professionals such stone hearted , not to feel things which shud ve directly affected our mind and heart .. How can we , as human, be so mean.. To whom are we showcasing this .. What are we trying to represent..?

Guess these questions remain a mystery and solving them will only hurt deeper..!
