ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD


On the other side of the world:

Its a snowy winter day....lazying as my both kids have fallen asleep.If i take a peek from the window it looks so serene,tranquil and calm that you can even here your own inner voice.
Only i can see some cars moving around , dry trees with out life & slow breeze blowing,It just getting dark.Just wondering where am i ???Thousands of miles away from home just "On the other side of the world".


Its quiet different & opposite what we see in our part of the world both demographic & cultural.The climatic & demographic conditions are also very uncertain with only Summer,Fall & winter season,That too the longest of them is winter.And winter season is being so freaky .But for us the climate & weather conditions are pretty much predictable which always gives a positive impact on day to day life.

Coming to the cultural difference,our culture is known for its rich cultural heritage which is a combination of different culture,tradition,lifestyle,religion,language,rituals etc.
Thats why its called secular country with unity in diversity like people of different religion live together.We have our own socio-cultural values which has influenced us to
great extent in our lifestyles may be the close attachment to our families & love,bonding for others.And we always think about our families rather thinking individually keeping
society in mind.But now a days westernization is also seen in major parts of the society.

Western culture is referred as modern & advanced culture in the world.Its based on rights,ethical values & individualism etc which means people give more importance to their
own wants,needs,desires.Families are more self centric they dont give much importance to the society.They want equality in everything .Men & women both have same place in the society .Their self esteem is very high.

Both indian & western culture are good in their own place.In the last few decades western culture has a huge impact on indian culture may be
the individualism,equal rights to men & women and even lifestyle change in the society which helped in removing the shortcoming of the indian culture.
At the same time western culture also influenced by indian culture interms of food,yoga & its cultural heritage.And the change is always inevitable
it gives us to overcome the drawback of each society.
