The funniest thing about life is that you get too used to things
around you too soon. Did I hear “Familiarity Breeds Contempt”? It looks like that. Otherwise you cannot be bored with things you
loved so much years ago, spending many days planning.
Children grow up, parents disappear, uncles and aunts stop visiting and neighbors are too bored to spend time with you. The same house which entertained so many people and which had seen hundreds of parties that stretched deep in to the wee hours, stops being alive.
But things are what they are and the biggest problem with living
is the need to satisfy one’s own mind, which demands change on a daily basis.
But often change is nice and spices up your life.
What happens when the house you built with so much borrowed money,
time you stole from office work to liven up years back and when the children
demanded all the time you had? The same house now looks sad and so out of
place for your needs. This doesn't
necessarily mean a change in taste.
The pity with modern living is that you manage with a small
apartment to start with, when your capacity to buy or build one with your
scarce resources is very limited and that too with so many demands. The
house slowly gets a full makeover somewhere in the middle and you have almost
fulfilled your dream for the extended
family.
Children grow up, parents disappear, uncles and aunts stop visiting and neighbors are too bored to spend time with you. The same house which entertained so many people and which had seen hundreds of parties that stretched deep in to the wee hours, stops being alive.
It is but natural that at some point in your life you want a
different house. Pushed by the demands of changed circumstances or just
by the compulsions of advancements in house designs and inventions of latest gadgets,
you find things, which no longer fit into your thirty-year-old house.
But the enthusiasm you had when you built the house has vanished.
Though time is not a big deal it is now the difficulty to be in touch
with modern trends that is taxing.
Now you slowly start thinking
of remodeling your house taking so many factors into consideration. The house
is both too old and too much out of date. Now that the children have
grown wings and moved into their own places, family gatherings have given way
to more of meeting with friends. The demand on the host changes dramatically.
Anything is possible in the remodeling industry. As the
years roll by and your views on lifestyle changes, the demand on the house
becomes more. The living room needs a completely different transformation. The
gadgets in the kitchen are out of date and call for a total change over. The
restrooms require an entirely redefined touch up. It is time to start talking to a remodeling
agency to find out how the house could be modified to suit your current needs.
The remodeling industry plays
a much bigger role in satisfying your needs than the builders who execute plans
from scratch. You have the liberty to be choosy in the task of remodeling. You can opt to do as you want, the places
that you think which need improvement. This way you can always have an eye on
the cost while asking for the alterations you want.
Remodeling changes the way we look at life and at ourselves.
