Often I have heard from my parents about their childhood and also my grandparent's childhood'it sounds very simple and interesting.it seems that their were no complications in their life.i mean' just imagine there were no mobile phones . ok leave mobile phones even telephones were not available.no whatsapp, no facebook, it must be great.they were very simple .
when I look at my father's photographs I sometimes laugh but then I realize that how simple and nice were those times
. not only simple very cheap also . my father's pocket money was rs 1 per week even that was too much for them
.everything in those days was better than today.pollution, global warming was less in fact very less. its obvious there were rarely any vehicles that time
.even weddings were held in a very simple way.no farm house or banquets were arranged . tents were put up either in the lanes or in the gardens.
television was something very special for the people because not everyone had it. people used to go to others houses to watch a film. there were very limited channels 1 or 2 maybe ok 3 at the most that too black and white not colored . one was dd national other was cartoon network and the third one was for the films. films were shown only on fridays cartoon and news were telecasted for 2 or maybe 3 hours in the evening.
even the cameras were black and white
children were not having video games or tablets to pass their time they used to play outdoor games like cricket badminton etc .when it was too hot they opted for carrom chess ludo and all the other indoor games.
ok now let me talk about the food even that was simple no burgers pizzas momos etc were available .snacks included samosas and bread pakora
no mixers juicers and washing machines were available . some people cooked the food even on chuhlas
at night people used to sleep in the lanes on manjisno air conditioners were their only fans and coolers . forget about AC even the electricity was their very rarely .
I wish I could have lived that life:(:(:(
