Times We Are Living In

I've been always wondering how it would have been had we been born in any other time than this. Its a kind of romantic idea that maybe gave me a high. Imagine being born in late 60's in US, and experiencing the social as well as musical changes along with the anti-vietnam war movement, rock revolution, WoodStock'69. Or maybe living during the industrial revolution in Europe , and the renaissance period. Or maybe the second World War europe.
The point is , I believed the best time to be born is when the society is undergoing a drastic change, so much so that the surrounding you are born in is utterly different than the society at time of your death.Beliving this thought I always hated this time we are all living, to me it was so monotonous and secure, settled and maybe predictable.
But now I think maybe I was wrong.
History is not made overnight, every day adds and leads to a change, whether the change is gonna happen in near future or not, you just can't rule out the role of a single day, which certainly we do.
The time we are living in is very significant concidering anything and everything. Especially being born in a big country like India we are in fact witnessing a country on a move , for good or worse that's again an another topic of discussion, our economy is growing (supposedly) , our middle class has been pushed up to upper middle class segment, every people we come across has a cell phone, we have cybercafes at remote villages, for the first time in our nation's history we are put forward as an industry based country.
Yes , personally too I've seen some changes, changes in connectivity, changes in weather pattern , changes in atmosphere. A glacier we had trekked in '98 in western sikkim vanished when we went there again in '06, only to find it out 500 metres receded. All of us has seen changes , but sometimes maybe we ignore it.
We are living at a threshold of change, a change so diverse and diffused that any one of us may not absorb the whole of it , just wait and see, and I believe the times we were born will be very different from the time of our death.
That's why I don't have any regrets to be born in this turbulant times.
