Urban life

Life in most big cities is disgusting. Many people living in urban areas say that they are sick of cabined and confined life of big cities. Urban life is altogether an artificial life. Here man is completely cut off from Nature. He forgets the movement of the sun, the moon and the stars. City people lead artificial lives.

A man who lives in the country or rural area finds city life most unpleasant. A man who is born and bred in the city has different feelings. He is accustomed to the crowded and over busy life of a city. He is able to adjust himself to the urban lifestyle. For him, urban life is an exciting adventure. As the unemployment is rising in rural areas and many people are acquiring higher education there, many people rush to the cities to start a business or get a job. There is an increasing presence of multinationals in cities like Karachi and Lahore. And many youth come to these cities to seek jobs. The business opportunities keep on expanding in cities and they also invite the young generation to the cities.

The big cities keep on expanding each day and thousands of new colonies are developing. Thus, the hustle and bustle and all types of pollutions are increasing every day. Everybody is busy here. No one has time even to talk to his neighbour or relative. Social contacts are missing. There is no value of life. The price of property is increasing day by day. Accidents are a usual occurrence and people have no time to take rest. The lust for money is increasing each day.

One may have some comforts while living in a city because all facilities are available here but one cannot have true joy.

People here, Are always in hurry. They do not have the joy of living. They merely rush through life. They are soulless machines, they are mad after the material comforts of life. They are greedy, cunning, crafty and selfish.
