Discovering Real Togetherness

Relationships are beautiful forever. It is something which should be meaningful. When a relationship is real, it can bring a bundle of joy and wonder. No one can lead a life without any relationship.

Relationship has started losing its real joy nowadays. People form relationship in digital world. They do not care about the real relationship which is next to them. They search for relationships in virtual world. They forget the real meaning of relationship and ignore the advantages of real relationship. Can virtual relationship give lifetime memories? Can virtual relationship give helping hand when you are in need? There is no way.

When I was young, relationship was in a different form. I had wonderful times and joyful memories with my relationships. I used to meet my relatives and friends frequently. I spent a lot of time together with them. I had shared my joy and worries with them. There is a lot of joyful moments with my relationships that I cherish for lifetime. Is that possible with digital relationship?

Most of the digital relationships start with WhatsApp or Facebook chats. Some would never meet in their lifetime. I do not think we can call it as a relationship. I fear that our children would lose the real joy of togetherness.

Let us break the shackles of the digital world and instead get down to the roots and connect in person. Let us feel and share real emotions in the real world. Let our children also feel and enjoy the same. Most of the apartments have park and play areas nowadays. Let us take our children frequently. Let us allow them to connect with other children. Let they build their relationships in person. We will also get a chance to connect with more people.

Let us stop taking children to shopping malls frequently. We can form a group of children and parents. We can take them to some natural places where the children get connected with each other. They can connect with nature too. If we take them to malls, they will not get time to get connected. Nature has the power of connecting the people. It can help us to discover the real togetherness.

Once the children enjoy the real togetherness, they will start ignoring the digital togetherness. Digital togetherness cannot give real joy. They can give only physical problems for us and our children. There are so many problems involved in the digital togetherness like neck pain, ear strains, sleepless nights and so on. We will not get anything good finally.

Let us plan our family outings to lakes, parks and hill stations instead of shopping malls and movies. Some of us had enjoyed the real togetherness during our childhood. Let our children do not miss the joy of real togetherness. Let us step forward and break the digital togetherness. Let us raise our voice to real togetherness.
