Identity!

Identity is important.... I had never given this word 'Identity' any importance until a few months back!
Not because I am a PR person and this word means more to me than a normal human being. Ofcourse I know it holds a great position in PR.... but I am talking about it as on a normal individual front.
Is it important that relationship asks for changes in you? The answer is Yes, it does.... although I have seen people denying the fact that they never changed though they have but truth cannot be hidden.
Why? Well, the answer is simple you need to give time to other people as well as that special person....
But Is it necessary to change our identity for them? Nope, it isn't. If a person out there does not understand your identity, that is your true self, then what's the point in continuing a fake burden even for a short time....???

Is it worth it? Yes, it is only if the person you are dealing with is worth enough for all the change... which is trust me very rare... Its not coz people are not faithful but rather nobody in today's scenario is ready to compromise and why should you? A man has his goals to achieve - Name, money, a nice business, a decent house and so on and so forth.... All these years until now, things used to work only in a man's direction of goals but now even girls turn out to be competitive and brainy making the compromising scenario difficult ... How? Well... they also have equal and competitive goals as men have... Nonetheless, both are jinxed with the greed of fame and money and bound to get entangled in the fast life of today leaving neither souls satisfied at given point of time....

They don't find pleasures only in falling in love or cooing all the time... they even find pleasure in attending seminars and parties for business.... every third thought is for making some money or name in the businessworld magazine and dreaming of that article on the first page of ET of TOI ...

Its not that either of the genders deny that the other in competitive but the competition is becoming healthier with the growing years.... In the race, you can include even children having their own levels of pressure.... which they don't crib about but are happy to face the challenges.... I remember a 4th Std. student explaining Forex to me a year back ..... amazing... I remember that I had not even heard that word till I was in second year of my college and my colleague standing with me in the class was still unaware while the child was explaining.....I was in fact shocked when one of my students studying in 5th Std told me that he was dealing in shares since he was of age 7 and used to watch news before coming to school in the morning!!!!!

People that's why just don't say that globalization is emerging .... they are sensing it, feeling it and trying to survive in this competitive market... Gone are the times when guys used to impress girls by following them like they had no other work and girls used to waste time over canteens and make-up... Today both of them want to get noticed by an equally talented person by impressing them through their achievements and goals in life.... They want a partner whom they can stand shoulder to shoulder and discuss their financial investments!
Gone are the times when people used to find a partner who can support them ... today they want someone who is independent and who can support themselves... Gone are the times they used to fight for rights ... now they know how to get them without making noise and how to move on ....

Nobody is ready and has time today to cry over the spilt milk, instead make money on your enough to buy another packet of powdered milk!!! All these changes have become more evident since last two decades and have clearly given both the genders and equal right of Identity and time to make a mark on the world through their talent....
