Whether to go back to India or stay back. Once you stay for a certain period of time here, u get u used to this and it is again difficult to go back to old ways! I want something like, keep india as my base and work all over the world! :D<br /><br />I was going through the web, if someone else is also feeling the same way i am feeling and came across ur blog! It's nice. I am also planning to write a post abt this, do check it out at www dot rvivekshanmugam dot com.<br /><br />Regards,<br />Vivek!Vivek Shanmugamhttp://www.rvivekshanmugam.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33652104.post-4520983279626080842007-12-15T12:13:00.000-05:002007-12-15T12:13:00.000-05:00Hi Naren, thanks for the comment - however, each o...Hi Naren, thanks for the comment - however, each one has their own reasons for the choices they make. It's purely personal. We cannot make a blind comparison between your situation and mine. Who is to say that going back to India is the right choice and staying in the US (or wherever you are ) is the wrong one. There is always a gap between whats practical and what we think is ideal. We as humans tend to blame the gap to fate or God as a means to assuage our disappointment in ourselves. We all deserve this small consolation. Again want to underline the fact the its a matter of personal choice - there are no rights and wrongs - the article was just a way for me to vent and hopefully in the process help people in my situations help sort out their own indecisiveness. <BR/><BR/>Hi Hari - thanks for the comment. I've been a bit lazy lately. Like most bloggers I have my hibernation periods after which I wake up and blog continuously for a couple of more months before going back to dormancy again :-)anitha shalinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17309158880744166508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33652104.post-26464693771772184572007-12-14T07:59:00.000-05:002007-12-14T07:59:00.000-05:00Hi Anitha,Those were wonderful thoughts, Everybody...Hi Anitha,<BR/><BR/>Those were wonderful thoughts, Everybody thinks in those lines but just hides them in their ownself.<BR/>Do write These kind of articles.<BR/><BR/>Bye<BR/>HariAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33652104.post-90518900430497379022007-10-06T04:39:00.000-05:002007-10-06T04:39:00.000-05:00Hi Anitha,this is suresh (ursmusically.wordpress.c...Hi Anitha,<BR/><BR/>this is suresh (ursmusically.wordpress.com)... you have heard my music before... now i want you to sing one of my compositions... <BR/><BR/>can you just send me you mail id to ursmusically@gmail.com to discuss further on this<BR/><BR/>thanks in advance<BR/>Smile<BR/>SureshkumarP.S.

India is full of opportunities and only for the person who looks with the magic glass of opportunity.<BR/> I would request you to make a choice (remember: yours NOT GOD's), and stop blaming about fate. Make a choice for you, leo & your future family. You voice like being sold out to GOD & fate.<BR/> Sorry for being bit harsh.Narendran Kumaragurunathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881383276517948155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33652104.post-33039143640763041662007-09-05T19:43:00.000-05:002007-09-05T19:43:00.000-05:00Well said Durga, and thats exactly what I am afrai...Well said Durga, and thats exactly what I am afraid of. I do not want my kids to feel like an outsider when they go to India...May be they won't mind because to them India would be a "foreign country" but I would mind. Its been 5 years since I came here now. But I have lived in India for 22 years. I know I cant wait too much longer if I want to go back...And if my fate makes that impossible then so be it - will accept that God did that for a reason.anitha shalinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17309158880744166508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33652104.post-19905588621197179462007-08-31T11:16:00.000-05:002007-08-31T11:16:00.000-05:00India is sweeter when u go there on holidays.

But then u accept that u no longer 'belong' there becoz ppl don't seem to think u do anymore...u will be the NRI....ur children...daughters in particular.. will always standout even in traditional clothing...through their accents, many 'please', 'sorry', 'excuse me's...., their manners...the way they look ppl straight in the eye.<BR/>India changes but ur idea of India doesn't change...u still look at it nostalgically...u cherish it....not becoz of any patriotism...but becoz it's hidden somewhere in u....part of u....teh idnia of ur experiences...childhood.<BR/>All becoz u don't live there anymore.

If you are really happy living in US, and have no real concerns, then you might have second thoughts. <BR/><BR/>Speaking about the immune system, I think attitude and patience has a lot to do. Until 19, I used to take Antibiotics atleast 150 days an year. I had asthma plus alergic problems all when I was safely kept inside home. But nowadays I am able to cope with Chennai's April days, dust & worst possible eat-outs. <BR/><BR/>You were absolutely right about services. As you would know well, you will also have to bite your teeth and keep your mind tension free in a society where a few big shots easily fool the majority of the population. It has always been hard for me :D <BR/><BR/>At the end of the day, I guess it's all about what your heart desires and what's best for the entire family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
