Why privacy is important?
A tell of two cities
Hmm.. to begin with how many of you feel threatened by the number of questions people ask you and unnecessarily try to intrude in your personal space. Why it is so that you are the only target? This has to something with you as well as, this has to do something with your personal friend. One second, I am not trying to judge anyone and anybody, but this is important to understand that sometime, too much of liberty can cost you time, mental peace and your wasted efforts. This has also to take a lot of things with the old habits and numerous manipulations, which people do to get the data and information out of you. Whatever their purpose is, but this is not good.
Be very vigilant
This is very important to be very vigilant of what people are asking from you. Sometime, you know in your subconscious mind that something is not right. This may come from your relatives, friend or acquaintance, that they would like to get unnecessary intrusion in your personal space such as your boyfriends, girlfriends or your job related queries. While you have always done that in your past, and this was not wrong in the old times. But now, you have to be vigilant. Why? Just because the time has changed a lot. After a big heavy pandemic , there has been a lot of change in your surrounding space, which possibly you might have started to feel by this time. There has been tremendous upheaval in your personal space as well. The friends who used to share some pictures, and jokes with you, may not be as relevant as you. Greed, jealousy and ill-intent creeps in most neglected of the places.
Change is constant
Change is the only constant thing in this world. When millions of years ago, a big comet had an impact with earth, it started the termination of dinosaurs. But, at the same time, it has started a new chapter for some of the humble species who used to hide, when the big belly dinosaur eat almost everything which came along their path. This is happening the same now, this pandemic has created a lot of changes, and a lot of people died. No doubt in that, and heartfelt condolence for those guys. But, I have also seen some humble people being more humble and helping the ones in need.
Acceptance is the key
Acceptance is the key for understanding the situation. While, you may be busy thinking that all is lost,and there is no hope at all. But, this is no so. Many people have difficulty digesting the fact that world has changed a lot. They seem to hold the same traditional views. This is called rigidity, and an inability to change. They think that, whatever it used to be in the past, would be in present and it would be an outgoing process. But, this is not the truth. This world has seen species who have extincted due to their inability to accept the change. And the world is what we are seeing today, is the result of acceptance of the reality. The better we accept it, the better would be our chances of survival.
So , remember to keep you safe
I know giving is very important in life, and it is a key to remain humble. But, this does not mean you should be compromised with your private things and life. So, you should limit yourself to what are the things you can give, specially in terms of data, your personal belongings and advice. This has been a key concern for corporate as well. They have been more vigilant into their cyber security space. I have seen a number of new courses in Cyber security in past few weeks
Last words
Wisdom is acquired by making mistakes and taking actions for improvement in your behavior. It does not matter how small step you take, they all take you to a better place hopefully. I hope to see a better place in the world.
