  It is true the world doesn’t remain same. It keeps on changing and moving. And its beauty to change. Moreover, because the world moves, a common man moves forward, his needs and requirements also move forward. It means that his needs and requirements will be different than his or her ancestors. Hus ancestors could need 5 to 6 days of time to reach a new country but a CEO can’t interview the applicant another day. Therefore, today we need car or any vehicle that can drop UA at time. Like our needs are changing, the knowledge or kind of knowledge we are required to have is also changing. In past everyone was required to know directions completely so that they could reach on time, but now its not a big issue if someone doesn’t know the way because of the availability of Google map, yet if he or she knows how to use it. To know how to use google map is the knowledge that we are required to learn, and this process of learning and gaining knowledge is education. Because of being pa...

Thus, they are becoming are needs for us for every-day. And gradually these gadgets are changing our lives. That’s why we are changing too. That’s the reason why workplaces are changing. But, there is one thing which is still same as it was 100 years ago. That thing is our education system or our classrooms. In this 21 st century, in this 2019, we are teaching our children and toddlers in the same manners which our ancestors used to teach us. No doubt, that method of making children sit behind the teachers in rows and that method of teaching them by giving lecture is good. But, it was good according to that time. In today’s world, when everything is so digitized, when we have passed the age of information, we need another way or another method to teach. The old method of teaching kids by verbally telling them that what photosynthesis...

Image
  Whether you are living in the most developed nation or underdeveloped nation, no school or family promotes why. There are many reasons of it. Some of them are: 1.        Ego is bigger: Many times, our teachers or science or loved ones don’t know answers of our questions but they are not ready to admit it because of their ego and that’s why they ignore our questions or make us quite. Ego is the biggest issue of everyone. It increases the communication gap between two people when we don’t give ground to why and that absence of why result in hollowness. 2.        Everyone likes fard: We all dream to be perfect in our lives. None of us is ready to accept their mistakes and express their vulnerability. This notion that we are perfect make other person shut our mouth and ignore our questions in the words of their yelling. 3.        Comfort zone is dearest to everyone: To find answer of our q...

  Today we have so many facilities, unlike past. There is phone in our hands that give access to whole world and way to connect to so many people. There is a great variety of food in front of us from cheesy foods to sugary brownies topped with oreos or any of your favourite biscuit. However, we all are facing so many issues now which we should not. Take an example of rape. Why there are rape when we know that each person should respect other person’s boundary. Why there is poverty when everyone has right to have basic necessities? Why there is no education when it is a basic right? Although we have excelled a lot in these centuries, the social issues are still there which are getting bigger as the time is passing. No doubt corporate sector and business tycoons work on them but their effort is not even 2 percent. The basic step to solve them is not spend billions of money but to find the root cause of them and there is only one way to find its root cause, why. Why help us to f...

Curiosity is virtue that create difference between man and animals. It is the basic nature of man’s child to ask why there are numbers or why there is mum and dad when he or she is a child but animals’ child won’t ask such questions. These questions create stress in mind due to which a child work or ask until he or she gets a true answer. Those answers give them different perspective to see the lives or know more things about life. It is our curiosity that give rise to science and religion. Science is nothing but curiosity’s synonym and religion is another way to keep yourself motivated to walk forward and explore the world by considering that there is someone who is guarding you. This concept of “someone” is nothing but the product of curiosity. Curiosity’s biggest product is why. Why is way...
