Two People. Two Perspectives

I accompanied a friend taking her Mom for an X-ray. We waited in line to pay for it, at the end of which we had to provide her details, and then move onto another line for the receipt and payment.

Looking at it from a completely business point of view, I criticized the existence of such bureaucracy. I chose this moment once again to poke fun at the Indian System - that they have adopted such inefficient means of carrying out simple tasks.

Two people truly do not look at one situation in the same way. And, after I heard it, I wished that I had viewed it from such a perspective.

Job creation was her viewpoint. In a country where the label ‘overpopulated’ would be an understatement, high unemployment rates are the norm. And this was a pure example of the efforts of the Indian Government undertaken to curb the issue of unemployment.

So often we criticize The System for their lack of effort. However, more often than not, we are just being blind to what is right before our eyes.
