This is about Ashiyana(Home), a dream of many maybe all, But realized by few. I wonder the concept of Ashiyana. Think of the time when there was no govt, no administration. Anybody could live anywhere. The desires were more of raw nature. Still there was a desire for one's shelter, which kept on changing. No such concept of floors, basement etc were even conceived. No mortgages were paid, no rents, no house taxes. With civilization, administration, govt etc, the concept of Ashiyana changed completely. Laws, cost, income, inheritance governed the type of Ashiyana one could get. Starting from Big Farm Houses, to Bunglows, then to small plots & now to floors or even Apartments, Ashiyana has taken a complete changed picture. While most still dream of it, some even get it, even fewer get the type they want, still quite very few get the type & surroundings they want. Raw desires of ancient man has taken some transformations but the basic nature of them remains firm. Desires of power, knowledge & sex drive secondary desires which form the nature of tasks performed by people. Secondary desires like owning a Ashiyana, having family, fame etc lead to going with the flow of the era. Ashiyana still dominates the major decisions owing to the desire of Ashiyana of one's type which one continues to hope for till one's death. We all are slaves of our surroundings, working on the behest of peer pressure, religion, tradition, moderanity etc, which forces us to take decisions which we may sometime like or not. I am also living with this reality, which has forced me to take a decision to have ownership of my own Ashiyana. I might want to have Ashiyana of 200-250 sq yard with lawns of another 100-200 sq yards, with ample parking space for 3 cars & two bikes, with spacious roads outside, cleaner air, greenery in the town, less traffic jams on the roads & no horns at all, But that's dreams, that's the kind of Ashiyana I want. Would I get that ? Would I ever get that ? given that my professional decisions would take me away from my dream Ashiyana or should it be the other way round ? Life is for quality living, or we live just to complete the duration we have got in our life span ? I wonder should we work in a way to shape our lives the way we want our lifestyles to be or should we work in a way to satisfy our professional apetitite ? I want my Ashiyana !!! Would I ever get it ?
