Dear Friends!
I always wonder seeing some emotions of some people! They seem soo false,very Pseudo!!!
Dont know if I do want to generalise, mostly I think it is a matter of perception. I feign sympathy when one friend cries foul over her mil, inwardly thinking to myself - after all, she is a MIL, so why fret so much anyways. One part of me thinks they seem too false, another part of the brain says that my pragmatic mind may not understand the sensitive soul of another
Part 1:
I feel that they are the emotions of costly people! Some problems in Ekta Serials and the reactions of those characters seem so pseudo!
Well, they are television shows and therefore drama is a must of their lives. Else can u imagine, how can a poor man afford so many divorces and re marriages! Can he afford the elaborate pandals for performing the last rites? Can he afford to buy jewellery which can be worn at night, which dont leave marks on the skin when they wake up. Ekta is no measure of emotions and neither are her characters. But on the same breath, I must add, I have some women, as insufferable as Mother Earth... oh sorry, I meant Tulsi
The crying of celebrities and the participants in reality shows like singing contests,Big Boss etal. They seem very Pseudo (ofcourse its my perception)!
I believe u said it 😳
The transperency of relations in lower and middle class people is more incomparison to high class people!😆 I got a new maid servant three weeks back. She wasnt exactly on the streets, by lower class standards, she was a well off lady, owning her own Kholi 😛 (room). She lived with her husband and his woman and her children and HER children in the same house, where the man slept between his two wives while the children snored around them. Sure, their relations are indeed far more transperant... or is it?😊
Part 2:
Earlier when I saw Mitr -My friend movie ,I thought this is quite unrealistic film,how can we share our feelings with online people!! I thought these are Pseudo feelings depicted in Pseudo films!
I think pretty easily. It is far more easier to lose oneself in the anonymity on the web. Virtual relationships are the new age pen pals... and if Meg and Tom can do it, why cant we
But after 1 year when I saw the movie again! I felt that this quite realistic and possible!! In this one year I've some online firends who are really important to me!They are like my family members!
I share my feelings and day to day things with them as if I know them from years! I support the following quote 100%
"The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life. Rarely do members of one family grow up under the same roof. --Richard Bach"
Ok! Enough intro and my questions are:
Part 1:
- Do you feel some emotions and problems are very filmy and restricted to costly people? No. Its again a matter of perception. I wont bother too much if I break a pimple or if I have a bad hair day! But if the same happens to a film star or a television star, it hits headlines, because they loose a day in shooting. It is this hype or this unnaturalism of their lives which make them seem unreal to us. Its like J Lo wanting to insure a particular part of her anatomy. Would you pay millions as premium for insuring you 😳. But they must, because if they dont, they lose out on lot many oppurtunities which cost much more.
- Do you think there is more humbleness and joy factor in middle class and lower class people? 😊 I cant answer. I dont know if I am vain or unhappy, as I see myself, I am happy and I like to believe that despite my economic status, which fluctuates at its will, I remain myself and I remain happy
- Do you think that as the power and money of a person increases the socalled responsible restrictions add in the pretext of dignity? In fact, going by your previous stereotypes, it should be otherwise. Rich dont have inhibitions in shedding clothes and Poor dont have the money to clothe themselves, so they move around as they please. I dont think it has increased their so called responsible restrictions.
Part 2:
- Do you have virtual friends who are really important to you in your real life? Yeah. 😳
Cheers,
