Sharing - a culture not new to our society


Sharing – most of us (netizens) know it through social networking sites, like face book, Google+ and many more. We usually share quotes, photos, and files with our friends. But this ‘sharing’ is rooted from the ancient generations and cultures of Indian society.

                We, in many occasions, can observe this sharing –
In our agricultural families, we share the vegetables, fruits and flowers whatever we harvest, with our relatives and neighbours. Ladies share the varieties (dishes) with the neighbours.
If you go to a feast on the occasion of a marriage in a village, you will see people serving, not for they are the members of the family, instead, they serve there to just share the work and glories of the occasion.
In college hostel rooms, pupils share the eatables fetched by their parents with the room-mates. They may share anything based on their affection with each other. As they are being apart from their parents, they share their happiness and sorrow with their soul friends.
We may share the vehicle of our colleague or neighbour to go to office or vice versa. –
Like these there are vast examples in our culture and society.
Like any aspect in the world, there are people who are not involved in any form of sharing and just see everything in money terms. Their minds are narrowed and overflow with selfishness. We will address them in further posts.
The thing crucial in sharing is love, affection and caring of the person sharing, and the need of the person with whom things are shared. Based on them only, the value is evaluated but not on the money value.
So friends…
                Keep sharing.  But Of course, be careful of what you are sharing.
