A few issues have been debated among ourselves for a long time. Its time we decide to look those issues analytically and take a side.
Its time we realize that the education system in India cannot be compared to U.S India is still a developing nation and there is left a lot to be desired in terms of how we manage our country. We are brought up as bookworms. We might not have the time to get our feet in the society and sometimes our paths might have varied from our childhood dreams. Still, It is our educations system that has brought us here (techies). Its gets us paid. So for god sake, don’t crib about it.
Its time to accept the fact that population is one of our major strengths. We are not weak because of our population. We are dictating terms due to it. Every major company now has development zones in India and products are being prioritized for our needs. Why do we celebrate diwali in San jose? Why do we play cricket in San jose? Why do we have temples all over the world?
Its time to mature. What does desi mean? How does it matter if you work with desis? . We don’t want to go to places, which are filled with Indians even though we have grown around them. We compare ourselves with every other Indian we can think of. We don’t smile at them. Its time to grow up. The fact that person has earned his rightful place in the society should be buried inside our mind. If that happens, we won’t care about what race is around us and would care about our goals.
Its time we care. The purpose of life is bigger than earning money, building houses, buyng cars and creating a wealth for family. It is to create an impact in someone else’s life. Its time to share. If we stop cribbing about how bad our country is and start contributing in a way to improve others lives, we can make an impact. We can change from being the race that cribs about life and moves on to a race that lifted an entire country.
Its time to accept that if we are not ready to put in any form of effort to improve our country in any way whatsoever, we should shut our mouths and not worry about it. It doesn’t make any sense to cry when we don’t care.
Its time to choose a side and move on!!!!!!!!

Like I care or do I?
Like I care or do I?
It's taken some time to identify the real me. There are times when you want to potray the real "YOU" somewhere. Read down.
What do I chase?
"Its money, nothing else". Oh common, dont go all sentimental and start saying that you are different (If you are so, take a bow). I am not talking about anyone. I am from an ordinary middle class and I want my next meal to be secure(of course, a little luxury doesnt hurt). Work place or Company doesnt matter. All I need is money and I am chasing it as fast as I can.
Will I be satisfied?
No. Hell no. Wherever I go or whatever job I do, I can always refer to my friend or if not possible, to anyone else who I think has the same qualification as me and gets a lot more money that I do. I do think that he is plain lucky to be there and I do think that it is "GOD" who has not given me my fair share of luck.
Identity what?
dude...to be Indian? Common, I have a job in the U.S and there is a huge possibility that I might get settled there. When its money, its nothing else. I dont want to be sentimental or this. You better run out of the place coz it is corrupt, dirt, people dont drive well, luxury is low, traffic is high and the administration sucks.
Will it hurt me in the future?
Truth again. It might hurt. It might hurt if I get all philosophical someday later in my life when I am retired and I dont have a job. It might hurt to look back at a life that I am not satified with (I deserved a lot more salary that what I got and could have got that if I had a slice of luck). It might hurt to look at my kids and find that they dont know my mother tongue. It might hurt if I come back to India someday and think that I had a chance to influence some people's lives there and that I have remained selfish all over (sounds like a film). It might hurt to think that if given an other chance, I would want to live this life all over in a different way.
It might hurt!!!!!
