Find your call

A loss of passion and illiteracy describe our time. Machines we be and disillusioned we are.
We understand how to work on excel sheets and write codes; we know how to sell products and how to design buildings but we know very little of who we are, who our ancestors used to be and what the world used to be a mere 200 years ago.
Knowledge of that which is capitalistically useless is quite crucial. There is no crawl and no bewilderment. We are not amazed with new buildings, new machines or new infrastructure. We are enchanted by nature only to capture it in our small photographs. Conversations are restricted to daily chores and mind-numbing gossip sprinkled with the occasional 'knowledge' of that which is useful for success.
Success as a term has lost its relevance because we just cannot sit still. Just look at yourself when in a movie theatre or at home. Things have changed and society has become a glazed shadow of its glorious past when people worked for something truly mighty.
