| Social Recognition - Money and Power |
Yeah! My question to you might
seem a little vague or a kind of a cliched one but it is a big reality that we
see and observe in our daily lives. When we were kids and taught the importance
of high morals, ethics and that the people must be prioritized based on their
virtues, piousness, great moral and ethical values, and due to having a great compassionate
nature. With the age and experience in this world, I have realized that all the
aforementioned attributes are unmatchable but the real-world scenario asks you
to have different rules of personal judgments, giving love, support, and of giving people preferences
over others.
Now it seems to me that the
great virtues might be considered to be of a level that human beings must be
categorized. In this modern world of materials, all that matters is fame,
fortune, and social status. People with great power and financial strength are
bowed down by others. It doesn't happen in the outer of the professional world
only. But within families, even people love to make friends who are famous or
have an arch profile to showcase. How they treat others, and what is their
ethical ground is forgotten if they are rich, famous, and have an authoritarian
position.
Even society gives authority of
decision-making and of being a person of class to someone whom they find with
worldly luxuries. The goodness and the sweet nature, and how powerful is a
character of another person who does not carry a stature and high volume of
money is either not listened or simply neglected, even is he is saying the
truth or a really practical thing. In the end, materialism wins the battle inthis current world, and it is so unfortunate to see all this happening.
Seeing all the worst effects of
realism on our attitudes, behaviors, socialization, and personal or collective priorities.
I can’t support the idea that that who are underprivileged and cannot make a
big name must be simply forgotten. Their voice, opinions, and their self-esteem
are as higher as those of one who is having big bank accounts, luxury cars, and
great houses to live in. So, we should prioritize humans based on their personalities,
characters, and their other virtues, and the result will be very
different.
Our society and the whole world
will see a larger difference if human beings with great morals, ethics,
principles, and integrity are given their due respect and honor. You will see a
change in social, economic, cultural, and political systems of not just
Pakistan, in fact, a rule that is applicable at any place. It is high time
post-pandemic that the human psyche must be changed, and we must focus on
goodness, positive vibes, optimism, and hope instead of fighting the old
battles of hatred, jealousy, power play, and lots more in this actual new world
order that a microscopic virus has shaken us to look for as the lives were at
stake, and the uncertainty of it still prevails even more significantly...!!
