This blog is about something that most people may have experienced it. The title of this post is “What are we doing!?” Yeah! Really! What?

Few days ago, I was talking to my father about things that recently happened in my life. My father told me a story about the past, actually about previous generation people in Iran. He described that previous people were kinder than people in the current generation.

“When we were experiencing the war in Iran, most people was helping each other. For example, they give foods to each other and so on.” said my father. “Marriage average age was 20 and everybody lives with less commotion. But these days, you cannot find anyone who doesn’t have commotions!” described my father.

In fact, that’s correct! In today’s life, most people are thinking to themselves more than before and they don’t give a damn about the others. People are not as kind as before because of their problems. Because they’re anxious about things that they don’t know but it’s going to happen. As my father said, Today’s livings are so difficult than before and because, these people have no time to think to the others. They don’t have time to spend with their families, with their friends!

Here’s a question that can be asked:

Why every one of us tries to learn more, earn more and improve more?

It’s obvious, because we want to have a better life. We want to make everybody in our life happy! It’s true that nowadays we earn more than before but, do we have better life than before? I believe no.

Of course, this type of living has effected people’s other actions. For example, in Iran, today’s relationships between boys and girls are not good at all. They only want to find a friend with lots of money. “If you got a car, you’re the best.” It’s what they think :-(

As a matter of fact, this can be a quote:

“The more money you have, the more people love you”

Steve Jobs also said something about money which is interesting:

“They should know that money is not everything”

All in all, I think, it’s better to think more to the actions that we’re doing. Let’s think about more important stuff such as family, health, friendship. I know that no one can live without money, but I believe that no one can live with lots of money too.
