But Old is Gold

Everybody wants change, change for better or for worse. Wathever the outcome may be, the adventureous spirit in the process or that spirit in a man thrills us. So the tendency to overlook the possible threat or the favour is evident in the spirit. That's how I see the spirit of this modern generation. If we see the strong force behind Barack Obama's run in the Presidential election, this spirit of change (the spirit to experience something new, not necessarily good but something that is exiciting) in the younger generation has been the thrust. Something the older generation, in general, is still waiting to appreciate. The heavy inflation in India and in many developing countries, on the other hand, keeps the price of everything changing, of course higher. Not a thing that everybody, even this radical generation are willing to go for it. Time for us to calculate why "old is Gold"
