Abundance Woes: What have you had too much abundance of, and how did you deal with it?
What would have been the likely outcome if you had not dealt with it both short and long term?"
Another week and another thoughtful question by 
Frankly it took me a great dive to find the abundant thing I had in my life. Be it personal or be it general. While looking for something, a lesson of my dad came into my mind.
"Too much of anything is bad". This is one of the few lesson that I learnt from my Dad. And this is what he got from his dad. So it's is kind of legacy that keeps passing on from one generation to another. The best part of growing up in Indian middle class family, you hardly get anything in abundance except the Values & Ethics. In a Middle Class society , there is always some kind of red-neck i.e jugad available to take on something.
The most important lesson one can take out from Indian Middle class is to how to stay happy in a limited resource. Indian Middle class family, keep all the alternative open, to make the best out of everything. Be it using an old cloth for duster, to making an old cup as pen stand. They keep many old rejected items at home, hoping to be used in near future. Few noticeable facts / trends about Indian Middle Class:
- There are many things that the middle class family does , keeping future in mind. Like,when there is shopping made, the family always try to keep thing economical, and purchase a size plus in view that it works a little longer, when the such cloth are not fit to the elder one, it will passes to the youngest one.
- A great mascot of energy conservation . Who keep's the lights on or fan??. There is always someone to keep a check on these things. Saving electricity bills is there motto, though by doing this they are helping the environment too by saving energy.
- Optimum utilisation of resources, Be it rolling over the toothpaste to squeeze the paste, or mixing the water into shampoo bottle to use it for one last chance or be it putting the large plastic cold drink bottle into fridge to store water. The middle class make effort to use all the product and avoid any wastages.
Growing up in such family with guidance and teaching of basic living, we always find abundance of happiness all around. And alongwith abundant Respect & Love. Respect the Elders & Love the Younger Thanks to the lessons that our parents keep teaching us that helps our family knitted togethers. There are abundance of such lessons and teaching that keep passing on from genre to genre and help us living happily and maintains a happy balance life and understanding.
The lessons of living a simple life has always been a priority. Today
A Family Disintegration the moment anyone of our family member sway away of the lessons and move out to search for more I believe the cohesive unit that we have , will surely get disturbed. Who don't wants more.?? But what the use of having more?? Living as per the basic need is enough to lead a happy life. The search for more may cause mental disturbance and ending all family value and social life.
Thanks to our parents who keep us together with all lessons and happiness. And passing on the abundant Values and Ethics from generation to generation.
