My idea of an ideal morning is to wake up and sit at the window sill and enjoy the sunrays that come in thru the window during summers or enojy the cool breeze that blows due to the rains during monsoon. Was sitting and reflecting...do we not miss the beautiful and enjoyable moments of life in our daily routine of work?

I am not against 'work'; it's just that I feel we loose out on the things that we aim to achieve by 'work', just because of work. The current scenario (or an emerging culture) is where the husband and wife both work. They do not see each other during the day, wud call about once or twice to inquire abt the other person's whereabouts, and possibly get time only on weekends to spend time with each other. And that too is a time when they 'rightfully' need some time to rest after the exhaustion of the week. If they have kids, they too are deprived of their parent's presence in their day to day life.

I donno whether there is a solution to the above problem, a woman has equal and good enuf reasons to choose and follow a career path, just as a man does; but does it result in a healthy family?

It's a different thing when people who work, work only to gain satisfaction from the work they do. But if they expect to enjoy the fruits of their labour in their personal life, do they really achieve the material comforts they aim for, and compromise on their emotional needs, at the same time?

Donno..is there a way out of this circle?? Life is full of ironies. We spend our entire lives to earn enuf to buy a comb, but we loose all our hair, by the time we have it!!!
