Black and White-As you say it!

I don’t understand why people crib so much specially the so called “whites”. If you move out from your comfort zone, you will sure experience a change. The change can be a good one or a not-so-good one, but then you chose it. So you have to go through it. A white man coming down to India will experience lot of things different, you-have-never-seen in your country. So why the crib, as how things here are this way and not that way. Obviously they cannot be same as that in your “Time zone”. If you find same conditions prevailing here like those in your country, then why the hell would you travel to this side of the globe? The beauty is to accept the things the way they are and try to collect new experience from everywhere. Don’t be a cry baby all the time. If a cycle is called a cycle here and not bike, then you call it a bike and not  a cycle. Why is it so hard to understand?

Rahiman dhaga prem ka..

rahiman dhaga prem ka 
matt todo chhitkay
toote se phir na jure
jure ganth padh jaaye

Quiet meaningful lines. Relationships are wonderful. Some relationships are for short time and some permanent. Some which are never meant to be yet we desire them. Some we have with us, but no longer interested in. Usually the one we have with our family is the strongest. One that is for life time. But in this world and changing time, is there anything which remains permanent. Is the relation you are having with every member of your family remains the same? Obviously your answer would be yes. But the sad truth is..no. Every relation gets the drift. The old bonds weaken the new forms. When you were young, your family meant everything to you. Your mother and father was world to you. You could die for your siblings. But then you grow, you add people in your life. Some of them become dear to you. Your closeness with them becomes more than with your family. It does not mean you start hating your family but you start caring for others more. You make new bonds with them and your life gets a new turn. And this cycle goes on. So, what is it? Is it meant to go like this? Is this how life is lived? Is it just changing your priorities with changing time?

Why are you living? To have a good career, good money, big house, big car and a happy family? You will die one day like everyone else. Why do we come then if we were meant to die one day? Is there something I am missing out?

Few things to accept and adapt:


  1. This place i.e Kharagpur sucks in summers. I mean the Humidity is worst. But you have to accept it and not crib.
  2. People are bitchy. They will bitch about you no matter how good you are. So the funda is to just ignore.
  3. Now, how can you ignore: The only method to do this: Action speak louder than words. So you have to shut your mouth and keep doing the work.
  4. WORK: Yes, this is the only and only solution for everything. Keep working daily. 
  5. There is no room for anger. You have to smile in every situation. Have Patience.
