Right title to right person......

Actually we ought to hold at high veneration the word so called"Sir" because this title is not so easy to get. Do you remember that in the 19th century, there was only one person who had been offered with the title"Sir"by the British Empire??? That person was none other than our first Druk Gyelpo Gongsa Ugyen Wangchuck who had brought a historical changes in our country. He was one and only sir in our country. But with time its value has gradually started to dwindle and now in this 21st century the title "sir" has become universal prefix to the names of every individual. I feel that ordinary people like us don't deserve this title. However, in today's world owing to the lack of deference towards our traditional culture and custom, everything is taken for granted by the people. No one bothers to analyze the things. I personally feel that it is extremely vital to use appropriate title what they really deserve. We can't call fish to whatever creatures that live in the water because they have their own names. Likewise we can't call everyone sir because we also have our own entitlements.  But don't get me wrong here. I don't mean to say that we should call by their designations or occupations.  Everyone must be knowing the ways how we should be calling others in our societies. We should not misuse the titles as we like.

Using the title'sir' to everyone is akin to drinking water without knowing the source. I personally feel this way. But you all may have different perceptions on it. Do you all feel proud or comfortable when somebody calls you sir or madam,while you are not in actuality???? For me it sounds like insult and feel awkward at the same time. I don't like somebody calling me sir as I am not a right person to have this title. Actually it is respectable and meant to be used with highly accomplished personnel and prominent persons like our magnificent kings.

A person who teaches a student is called a teacher, in our language-Lopoen. This is the another title that we are misusing. Are all the people teachers??? Obviously no.. right??? But knowingly why do we call them lopoen?? This is the question to be raised within ourselves. Misusing this title would be a great humiliation to our diligent teachers who all work tirelessly for the betterment of our future citizens of our nation because it evidently shows that they are the least respected personnel in the societies. They would also feel demotivated. So it is awfully essential to use proper title to proper person. Don't ever get mixed up water with alcohol. Though both are colorless but the taste is different. So the same with us..Though we all are human beings but our fates and entitlements are different.
 So, I will be glad to have opinions on it from you guys...
