some random thoughts

Today i feel urge to write after a long time. A lot has happened and lot is in the process. Today just feeling devoid of any stress of new parentship. I was thinking yesterday to watch some new hindi movie but urge to watch any new hindi has died inside me. May be, its effect of living 4 years in US and watching hollywood movies daily or a generation gap where i  find current movie subjects or songs or anything related to hindi movies not exciting. I haveno urge to watch a Ranbeer Kapoor movie whereas  just 2 years back i was vying for him and drove 2 hrs to Chicago to watch his movie inspired from mahabharat ,name is just slipping of my mind.

Today morning  we were discussing that US has taught us many things and major being how to Enjoy life. Or in other words Life is not just a constant struggle, but we can enjoy it too. Its not that i never enjoyed in India but in India we have to struggle for each and everything. here is struggle for admission of 3 years old in a good school. Whole education stuff is a struggle in itself. Getting into a good job is another struggle and struggle goes to a next level once you are married and have responsibilities. We become so accustomed to the struggle that we start enjoying it . And if we don't come to US we might never know that life can be enjoyed in altogether different way. That there are easy ways to save time and energy for all tasks or chores at hand.Examples are dishwashers , laundry washers and dryers, vaccums etc etc list is long.
On professional front you don't have to always work in office you can work from home too.
