Why Manners are still relevant today?

               I  was on a lift the other day rushing down to work as I was late the other night was a long night watching Netflix and was a little tired and I was eager to get in the lift and was eager to get into to lift and clicked the floor that I am supposed to go, meanwhile there was another gentleman who stood by to catch the same lift which I didn’t realize and he stepped inside and started blasting at me, by speaking , aren’t you aware that if somebody’s coming you should hold on to see them and then wait for a moment and carry on, mate!! We are all in a hurry, but manners do matter!

               I t took a great leap to understand how important it is to understand the simple act of random kindness and what it is to keep your manner even if it’s in your busy schedule.

                In a more simpler way we realize that manners are more important as we hold a certain etiquette for the art of life despite wherever we are, we tend to realize and understand that we may grow up as much in knowledge but having good manners holds the key to complete formation in growth.

                We may move our job online, career to online, shopping online and what more but I challenge we cannot move our manners online understanding the fact that every young kid has everything he gets but I believe that art of manners is still a dream to go about and it’s a great challenge for our education system cause we tend to target more on the quantity of knowledge but not the quality of life to learn and experience.

                As a kid who moves from this stage to his college and that’s where he/ she fails big and then its move forward to happen in their worklife which finally leads to a simple incident like what happened to me in the lift.

                No matter who you are or what you do, become, manners that form in your life matters most and it will have a greater impact in the life you wish or want to become.

                Today’s generation is in a crisis and that we need to accept the fact that we have buried this art which is simple and we move on to look into more and more bigger problems but the solution is this.

                Manners have changed a lot over the years and are still changing, many countries have their own set of distinctive manners they follow and I suggest you to try some.

                Manners are very important, because they speak before you speak.

                Build some manners, transform and transfer the world into a better and never forget to transfer to your young ones!!!
