Q. If you could go on any type of adventure, what would it be? How far could you go?
Everyone in the world, without a doubt, dreams of going on an adventure. These days, people are tied up with their busy schedules and do not have enough time to take a mental break. If I have a chance to take a trip away from my place, I want to go to India.
First of all, distinct characteristics within a society are often found in a given country. Modern city like New Delhi is recognized as the best of its kinds of high quality of information technology and outstanding individuals. I want to investigate on their education system and human recourses method. On the flip side, India contains the adverse effect caused by the gap between the rich and the poor. The poor are bending their backwards to keep up their lives. However, it is unconventional that they always give thanks to god for what they have, no matter how miserable their lives are.
Second, it seems irrational to maintain the hierarchy of classes divided into five. Those who are born in upper class are more likely to neglect the relatively lesser class. This social system has potential risk to create a sense of compatibility as the opportunities that might happen in various aspects are selectively given according to the classes. Some say that this is, to some extent, similar to our social trend to treat people based on how powerful they are. However, this is totally different concept. The powerful tools such as money and authority are largely made by people’s efforts so it provides reasonable grounds for them to be compensated by whatever form of materials like money and reputation. But, the classes in India which classify nations are defined since they are born like nationality. Interest thing is that this unfair system lasts so long even in this democratic world. If I go there, I want to look deep inside the system.
Adventure does not mean exploring jungles and rafting on the river to me. Rather, it can be applied to any concept that can help us find meaning of life. One of my friends who already went there told me that I might find another identity after visiting India. Therefore if I could go on any type of trip with the burdens lifted from my shoulders, my first choice might be India.
Every person in the world without a doubt, dreams of going on an adventure. These days, people are so tied up with their busy schedule hence they don’t have time to take a break and unwind. If I were given a chance to go on a trip far from my place, I would go to India.
Every country is made up of a society with unique and distinct characteristics. New Delhi, one of the modern cities in India, is well-known for its advance Information Technology and some outstanding individuals. If I would visit this city, I would want to learn and explore their education and human welfare systems. The flip side of this beautiful country is the adverse effect of the looming gap between the rich and the poor. The poor have to work their tail off just to earn a living. However, I find it strange that they still give thanks to their god in spite of the miserable life they live.
For me, it seems irrational though interesting to maintain these long-running five levels of hierarchy up to the present. Those who were born in the upper class are more likely to neglect the lower classes. This kind of social system posts a risk of creating an unfair and unequal distribution of opportunities based on the social class one belongs to. To some extent, some people say that this system is similar to my country’s own social trend of treating people based on their power and authority. But I beg to disagree. For me, this is a totally different case. In Korea, powerful people who enjoy living luxurious lives labored to reach their current status. Unlike in India, people acquired their classification by birth just like a nationality. Given the chance, I would like to look at this system deeper.
For me, adventure doesn't only mean exploring jungles or river rafting. Rather, it is more on soul-searching and discovering life. One of my friends even told me that I can discover a different side of me once I visit India. Therefore if I were given a chance to travel freely, my first choice would be India.
