Gazing at the moon and counting the stars!

Have we lost the essence of life?

In this era of computer screens, I want to sit beneath the sky and count the stars!

In today's generation of e-books, I'm a hardcore paper back reader!

Rather than being emotional about engines, I'm passionate about my daily walk in the park!

Rather than crowding in front of the television screen, I want to sit in my balcony with my family and munch our favourite crisps!

In this era of fake smiles and cold hearts, I want to spread genuine happiness and fill the world with the warmth of love and affection!

In today's generation of ever changing and wavering minds, I want to have a strong opinion and stay true to my belief!

Rather than being a video game fan, I choose to play badminton in my front yard!

Rather than meeting online friends, I opt to go on dinner dates with my companions!

In today's world of virtual dating, I love to go on a physical rendezvous with my partner!

In today's era of restaurant styled fast food, I'm still a 'ghar-ka-desi-khana' person!

Rather than going with the flow, I want to take a stand for myself and my beliefs!

Rather than teaching my kids to play under the bathroom shower, I taught them to bask in the cool drizzle of the rain!

In today's world of OTT media, I yearn for a day out watching my favourite hindi cinema and enjoying crunchy popcorn!

In this world of screen and stylus, I'm still a paper-and-pen writer!

I wonder sometimes, while connecting via digital media, have we forgotten tête-à-tête?

I often wonder, while dating virtually these days, have we forgotten to revel and indulge in their close proximity?
