WHICH IS BETTER.....FORMER OR LATTER? Dad used to give us a measly Rs. 20/- per month, in that we were not only able to eat stomachs fill, but we were able to save too!!! Now we earn a sum of 20K, we have no idea where it goes, let alone saving it!! Which was better, the former or the latter??? 6 subjects per year, 6 different teachers! One project since we joined and just one manager!! Which was better, the former or the latter??? We used to make notes; we used to study for ranks!! Now we scan thru our mails; we struggle for our ratings!!! Which was better, the former or the latter??? We have still not forgotten the people in the next section!!! Now we don't even know who sits in the next cubicle!!! Which was better, the former or the latter??? After getting back from a tiring play, we used to do our home work!! Now who knows/cares about home; all we do is just work!!! Which was better, the former or the latter??? We knew our history and economics!! Now let alone reading books, we don't even catch up with the daily news!!! Which was better, the former or the latter??? We had an aim in life; behind our backs we had our teachers!! Now we have no idea about the future nor do we find any one who would tell us anything!!! Now just ask yourself, which was better, the former or the latter????

Of course former is better, we get nostalgic whenever we remember our past days, going to school, meeting friends, sharing lunches, playing in the evening gone all those days, but it is not only with us same has happened with our parents and with their parents too, it's life and we have to move on and we are moving on... cheers to our present and salute to our past, as it stores nice memories. Thanks Satish for making me nostalgic.

"TODAY" will become "FORMER" in "TOMORROW". Everyone has to go through it , we call it as LIFE. We can't bring back those happy days but we can try our best to make each n every every moment happy with our "FRIENDS" and make them happy too.Things won't change we need to changes. Cheers FRIENDS!!!

Its a good topic :) Former was always better but we can try to change the situation, we just have to visualize and act upon present as we wish to be and enjoy it.

"Former" always no doubt about it.
Thoese where the golden days when there was no word like worry 
But what is latter today will also become former after sometime.

Cheers to you dude..... In a race to a happy life.. you made me to sit and think about the past ( atleast for a while ;) ) cheers to that..... Yes ofcourse dude... Our father use to give 20bucks a month and even we save some from it... 

I think the thing starts here dude...... 

At that time , when you c a guy who spends more than 20 bucks a month, Or when you c a guy who eats a choclate milkshake  or a choclate ice cream ( which you cannot able to afford ;) ) ..
Literally you will think. And you will speak to yourself  saying “ Yes we have to start saving some more money from that 20 bucks so that we can afford that ice cream next Month “

This particular example suits for every thing dude,.....

This is where it begins....... “EXPECTATION” , “NEEDS”  “SATISIFACTION” ...I think these are the stuffs that drives us today .... 

And this made us to run faster in the race to the happy life.  Everyone wants to pursue happiness dude.... 

Humm .. i wont say which one is better... i think we have to stop running for a while and think .........( which is hardly impossible in today's life ;) )  ... 

And i think there are lots of people in earth who had a beautiful former life and a latter one ( which you have mentioned) ..May be we havent come across them................................. 
 
And thank you... a Very nice thought 
P.s

Time is  irreversible and changes our lives in which way it likes. So we cant compare what we had and what we are having now and wht we are going to have. We can only try to make maximum and proper use of it.We cannot go back to the period of our forefathers and we cant survive becoz of the habit we have fallen in using present times. If we had competiition during our times , our children are having super cometition

When a kid, the last time I cried I got a chocolate - in fact pretended to cry. But, now I tried crying reading your post remembering those days but got nothing in return. That was then and this was now. Tell me now which is better. The former of course. But time has shown that nothing is static and we need to create our own space and enjoy the chocolate in other forms because we dont just get a human life like that, we need to earn it. Try getting a bournville for yourself and you will find the answer.
Former is Better in all the referred cases.
