Should I retreat to past

In every day, there are some of inventions like , phones, satellite ,internet and some of them give as much as take.
Today I undergo from the vanity and artificiality in our society. The unusual youth`s conduct nowadays are illustrated by triviality of their actions .This is my view of course, so I am just about to highlight some points.
During a discussion between group of younger people and me at a barber’s shop , I am extremely shocked when I see the younger demand from the barber to make their appearance like women’s, on the pretext of a new style , and the barber himself begins arranging their hairs and applying the cream on their cheeks ,really they look like beautiful girls ,dressing colorful clothes, appearing as easy preys to be hunted by hunters .
I told them “ You are vain younger. You start losing your moralities” And one of the them said to me “Oh man it is the freedom ; you live in a stagnant life. You cut off completely from modern life style “ Another showy one said” You live in a primitive and uncivilized life “

It is quite alright to say that the spell of degeneration and corruption of channel TVs badly affect our families. It sweep our community and invade us .As I see some changes in my brother's conduct. He becomes rebellious boy. And so violent. Also our women are deeply influenced and infatuated by fashions and new materialistic life style.
I am not only one in this view .perhaps , I present the typical man in my society .Apparently everything will change , and the convention and concepts of morality start collapsing , and being eroded by the wind of change . Men like me cannot help resisting the creeping of new life style.
I quite have known that some persons do not agree with me, so I search about the suitable norms to evaluate my behavior with them. It is dilemma .I become uncertain, wandering; whether they are right or not .Should I blame my stoned mind, stillness, or being so fussy or outdated or anti-social change man; As they always describe me? Should I retreat to past and live in my own seclusion? Remembering the shadowy glimpses of past , waiting for the wheel of change to crush or defeat me?
Really I do not know.

  • Stephen @Thank you very much for your thoughtful comment , it delights my post .

  • Yes, meadia is more to indoctrinate, giving their value as common thing to be adapted, than educate. People change not progress.. Don't retreat, but strive...
  • Hala@ There were many useful inventions , many of those have been invented to help people . The problem is we divert the inventions to waste our time ,mind or even our lives .Sir Noble invented the dynamite to brake huge stones and rocks then help workers .later on, people use dynamite to kill each other .
    Thank you Hala for delighting my post by your nice comment.

  • I think the improvement and the changes are necessary .We can't imagine our life without computers ,Televisions ,Internet ...but we should choose what is suitable to us ,I mean we should make these changes means of education and entertainment and improve ourselves by it .I notice these days most  teens wasting their times in Computer games and chatting ,only ! they refuse to get benefit from the the computer and internet ,they can learn and read and educate themselves in addition to chatting and playing games .So ,The new technology is important but we should know how to make this technology help us .

    Thank you ,Tawfeeq.Best wishes !

  • No two astute beings disagree that there is a big gap between new and old generation Sometimes ,we feel it is hard to narrow this gab as the world has gone to lose its morality in many aspects, the new world has been already deteriorated rapidly .No one can return back the wheel of changes .

    Is this time for old generation to cope with new tribulations and new evils , for there is a new world to be born??
    I read once that "Our problems are man-made, therefore they may be solved by man” But to me that seems very odd saying .Today we have many death makers in all over the world as a result of its degeneration and this is the worse part among changes .
    Yes ,it is a consolation to know that some of us have strong desires to resist degeneration as much as they can .I pray to be always one of them and to have perception to distinguish between right and wrong .
    This comment is the most beautiful one that I ‘v ever received from you .

    “Never retreat to seclusion. Together, the bad and the good stand side by side. The bad fights for his own self but the good fights for His Creator, who ............when all the things on earth have been said and done, HE still remains and will always remain, the GREAT ONE!
    Let the foolish perish on his own foolishness but the humble and the wise will be uplifted and rewarded when the right time comes.
    SO BE IT!”
    Well done Anele ,and thank you so much .

  • Hi arif saeed@ Changes in my place are the source of exotic cultures which come from all over the world. Most our society are conservative. Generally, people are inclined to fun and evil so I think everything will be changed sooner or later . It is a dilemma , but the family plays an important role in resisting the peels of civilization .They can work hard in order to prevent their sons from dissolution.

    Thank you dear for your nice comment.

  • Since the creation of world, everything has changed, but one thing hasn't changed, you know what? The process of changing
    Actually our parentsts have abdicated their responsibility to promote modesty. So, negative impact of media on our youngers is seen.
  • Hi Bala from India@ I know that Changes are unavoidable. They are coming incessantly, and we should resist the bad of them tirelessly, and we should take the good changes and try to apply them in our life .
    Thank you so much dear ,it is my pleasure to see your nice here.

  • Hi noaslpls @ The changes are coming continuously .They come by many ways such as the Net , TVs channel , phones , books and  tourism and so on .Some of changes are very good and others are too bad.  It is hard to resist bad things even educated persons find many complicated problems to cope with such matters .

    Thank you very much for your nice comment ,it delights my blog .

  • Changes is inevitable....It will bring both good and conflicting cause in the society...Do People change themselves or they are chased to changes..? Of course Technology also plays a major part in it...Only thing is we should not loose our Moral , Mankind and Humanity in this huge wave..
