Iam repeatedly asked by anyone i meet is how is life in U.S staying at home, i would say whatever comes to mind that moment. It is one question i never liked, makes you feel stupid, remainding you are not doin anything constructive out of your life, no identity of your own,and the truth is always bitter. I always admire the smart ones who can adapt to any life and make it work for them and wonder at the ones who are very simple, no qualms,no questions kind. I saw this film Teen Deewarein ( 3 walls) quite a good movie, there is this one scene where the husband shouts at his wife for taking a documentary, he will say all i want you to be is a simple wife, cook for me,take care of me, every once a while have it with me...most man's definition of ideal wife, certainly nothing wrong,but it has to be a choice made by the individual, should not be forced by self, someone or circumstance. Well coming back to stay at home life here, generally there is nothing wrong. Life is either inside 4walls or 4 wheels, very cushioned, if u enjoy u got it.
We were driving in the Pokonos mountain range to see the fall colors, and we stopped in front of a shop as my friend wanted to buy pumpkins for the Halloween. It was a road side one, there were fruits and also artefacts made out of vegetables and fruits at dead cheap rate. To our surpise, there was no shopkeeper or salesman. In front of every item, price was displayed, and there was a board which read, please pay the amount for the items you purchase here in the box kept on the side, and if you need change, there is another box kept with change, you can take it from there. It also said, we can afford to give at this price only if you co-operate, if you steal the money or the items, we would have to close down the shop. My respect goes to all those who support that shop and it includes me also.
