'...Excellent write up.. Especially this part.. <br /><br />'Home country's Image: The moment you step outside India and come to live in another country, you are an Indian ambassador ! Anything and everything you do will not trace back to you but to your country. If you are late for a couple of meetings, the consensus would be ''Indians are never punctual''. If you get caught without a ticket in a train, the ticket collector will pay extra attention to ''Indians'' the next time.<br /><br />Its human nature to generalise and create prototypes. If we saw a couple of Germans walk into a temple with their shoes on, we would immediately complain ''Germans do not respect our culture''....see what I mean ?<br /><br />Even if one is not extraordinary and bringing India glory, the least one can do is be ordinary and not stick out as a rule-breaker !'SKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07953461042843815178noreply@blogger.com
