Coldplay concert tickets in Jan 2025 in Navi Mumbai from a few thousands to lakhs of Rupees per ticket sold out within the first day, long queues for buying iPhone 16, Ambani’s spending millions on Pre/Post and Main Wedding, etc – is the world going mad? This is the effect of the new age YOLO(You Live Only Once) lifestyle.
Welcome to the World of Valuables where even your worth is determined by what valuables you have and not what values you uphold…and I thought good character was based on the values(Sanskar) you uphold but sadly in today’s world no one gives a damn to character as long as they have a iphone 16 in their hands and million followers on social media…
You reap what you sow is the inevitable law of karma. We are sowing valuables chasing rather than value based living, you don’t need a genius to predict where this circus is headed.
Time to wake up and smell the coffee and not get lost in valuable chasing but to live by good old values is the need of the hour…
