A very old man~~~A young man~~~And a small boy (You can always imagine the opposite gender for this. Don't think I am favoring a gender, and demeaning other)
This post is here to say something similar. Today morning when a man collecting the internet bills rang the doorbell, I paid him and he went away. But my Mom had series of questions lined for me.
First she asked, for what did you pay him? when i answered, "It's the internet charges", she had another question within no time "What is internet?". When i tried to explain her about internet and search engines and websites, she did not listen to the answer carefully and immediately went away from the room saying, "WE don't understand this internet and search. search what???"....(she did not remember the concluding part)
She started telling me, world has changed. We never had these things. She seemed as if these changes had spoiled the living of people, whereas I feel WOW!!! Technology has done wonders!!! She feels its so difficult to use a mobile phone, and i feel Thank god! I can have long chats with my friends. She feels i waste my time by using a laptop, whereas i feel NO FOOD, chalta hai.....but NO LAPTOP, I will die. And many such things have difference in opinion.
The message i want to convey, is this is generation gap!!! I would simply define as,
" DIFFERENCE IN PERCEPTION"
