Give a reason to come back Home!

Its funny but its serious. People, places and relations everything changes when an Indian comes to USA after a whole life of schooling or may be graduation in their home country. The first change we see after we land is how the people whom we never met welcome you.

I am here from past 8 months. I was scared when I was coming to the new city or I should say to a new country. I heard about it a lot from my childhood and always wanted to visit it once, however also had a feeling that I will never stay in USA more then a year. Most of the people come here with a long term plan, I don’t know its just to satisfy that we always have different excuses to stay here, some one will have to support financially to their family back in India, some have reasons for their life partners, so everyone has one or the other. There are very few those can speak up that they are here because it’s more comfortable here, it’s more fun here, it’s cleaner and life is soothing here.

I think there are many people who want to go back to there home (India) but they cannot because why to go to a place where people don’t want to change (get better) so their perception changes and they want to get settle her, away from their needy family. May be I can’t have a rich car in India or may be a centralized air-conditioned apartment and these things doesn’t matter. The fact that matters is when I go back and I wait in a queue for train or bus I never get chance to get into because now I am changed and I follow the rules may be unsaid rules of human. When I am being generous to the people around me they don’t have time to be generous with me, or may be they don’t even care unlike in USA, then why I should come back. People stand up in buses or trains for a lady or elders, people hold doors for others, people weather know each other or don’t greets each other irrespective to the gender. There are things that I learn here and want to implement in India but people say, we have been doing the same from past many years, this is our so-called "sanskrity", it’s nothing but another excuse to hide our faults. People in USA don’t have love or affection to their family, and I came to know that is not at all true, they love, they say it, may be they don’t get along well with each other, then aren’t we fighting within the family for money, land and many.

I am not cursing our land or our people rather I am passionate about it. That is the reason I want to come back and make things better. May be I will change a very few, may be just my family. There are things need to be changed in USA too, but we don’t have to think over it we have to think on the betterment of our people and land. It is happening and we just have to rapid the action, let us all make a difference, let us give a reason to our people to come back to our land and join us to grow.
