Shoba’s (columnist with mint) defination of Luxury - Time, customizaton and discreet luxe cannot be any closer than my own defination of luxury. I wont be right person to speak anything about the other two but TIME, yes that is one luxury that the creator has gifted everybody equally. We all have 24 hours a day, it doesn't matter whether one is multi-millionare businessman or some one working with a ever busy govt. office where they have all the time in the world to discuss everything under the sun. (Ofcourse other than their work). We all have 24 hours only and it all depends on how one intends to use those 24 hours.
The idea of living an organized life wherein everything is as per schedule is facinating but then at the end of day, lying on the bed when we think of someone who passed by our zooming vehicle playing with his kids, or walking with partner or with himself we do end up thinking whether all the mullah earned during the day was really worth it.
I see a whole lot of people who love spending long hours at office, with all kind of very arguable reasons that this is the time where extra efforts will bear fruits in future. But then these are people of age ranging from 25-52. I fail to understand what future they always talk about. Bcoz i know that there are things which i will be njoying the most when i am 26 and not at 62 and vice -versa.
I think a whole lot of people do understand it, but are too weak to tell themselves that the way they are running around is wrong and they are missing a lot of fun. I say this because i have come across a whole bunch of people who do dream of spending time in luxury but end up sitting in office just because some one else is also sitting and chatting with his friend online.
