Hello Mr Swamy,

I am nandu, had met you with Belagere tata.

I cant help but empathise this feeling of yours. Its so true. A similar thought process hit me when i recently visited the US.

There I had to face a completely different environment where people lived and thought very differently.

This setup made me realise that we all live with fixed thinking patterns. Patterns which are inculcated in us by our brought up. Digging deeper i felt that the Indian brought up makes people more dependent on the environment.

I was faced with situations which i had never envisaged before. And i had no one to help me out. This forced me to think for myself and find my own solutions. And believe me the whole experience left me with a sense of elation. May be i was breaking the bonds i had imposed on myself for so long.
