Reality?

Every time I think about relationships, I get worried because I have seen relationships are based on convenience for most of the people aroud us, no trust among even the family members! We are living in a world that is bizarre where even friendships are capricious. Envy, jealousy, revenge, rudeness, status, etc are ruling everybody's consciousness-there are too many skeletons in the closet! For most people, the most important things in their life are linked to money, power, social recognition,etc. Everyone seemingly leading dual lives! I know in today's world there is no need to get excited or worried about something that is a dime a dozen. Our values and skepticism in these situations can't help, people are learning to come to terms with the hypocrisy and insecurities of the world we dwell in. Everybody is talking about values...but I always wounder where these values have gone? The value erosion is more visible in our society exemplified by dysfunctional families. The erosion of values are demonstarted by daily newspapers which are filled with stories of cheating, crimes, incest, and what not! We(Indians) had a way of life with a rich personality of its own. We are talking about globalisation of economies...now we really need globalisation of our long forgotten values to create a common bond of values between all nationalities, races, culture, etc!
