From Hamara Land to Ameri Land - 1

Today is all about life in dreamland. .! No.. iam not talking about The Alice and the Wonderland of Oz.. This is about every other person of Ameriland.. or say every other family in Ameriland..

First you severe your ties with your homeland in pursuit of better life.. you reach here with gleaming eyes trying to fit in and stand out. But do we really need to stand out ??

Most of us are here by choice, I haven’t come across any person, who was forced to come here.. Every single living person here is for better life and to have a better future.. So how did u really end up here ?? Are you really destined to be here or it happened..

Every other person would answer “luckily my petition was chosen from the lottery”.. Really.. Are you that lucky..

lets talk about the Body shopping and Marketing Companies.. While you are in Hamara land, all you do and think is about Ameri land.. You work for it, you struggle for it, you even fight for it..! Every year when the window for visa opens, they just toss a blanket over you, asking to send in all the documents, photos, previous work experience letters and what not.. and you oblige to it.. Run across all the file folders, grab all the documents and with crossed fingers you wait for your application to be picked up.. Numerous people wait for the results.. I guess they weren’t that serious about their studies or else we would have many more scholars (pathetically, even I was one of them)..

You do every capable act to get through with it. Nope.. iam not talking about Beg.. Borrow or Steal.. instead, iam talking about  Work.. Work Hard and Work Harder.. You even spend peaceful nights attending status calls, you skip Family time, Vacations and all you think about is landing in Ameri land. I Don’t blame the people’s perspective of better life, but iam only trying to understand why the software companies do not validate the application at the entry level.. The question about who deserves it is long last.. All they think is to thrust horde.. legitimately if the people would have been validated based upon their experience and value to the project, then the situation of excessive applicants would have been mitigated.. But instead they body shop people.. It was similar to buying organic vegetables from a farmers Market in an orderly fashion.. “You need Green peppers.. But  iam sorry, I do not have one.. But I do have jalapenos, it almost taste same.. Take 10  instead”..

Since every other Tom, Dick and Harry is eligible or say has a degree in his hand and placed in a white collar job, he is eligible to fly.! Lol, Quality education was long last, I knew it the moment I stepped out of college.! Even I aspired to fly.. You care less about your hikes or reaching levels through Promotion. But all you care is Flying High.

The ordeal doesn’t end here, when you enter the embassy for your visa interview, all you think about is to stay calm and answer all the predefined questions with the answers provided.. You pray all way along.. All you want to see is your passport in their hands and an answer from them “we will ship it to you”.. You thank all your stars, all the godly things, needless to mention the strings on your hand reminding you to visit the shrine and pay back the respects. You also oblige to thank your managers, Your Peers, Company, HR’s, Immigration Team, the Attorney, His Dog, His Cat, His Ant, Spider and everything..!

life is in despair if your passport is back in your hands. You feel like a loser,  A kid who has been taught all his life the phonics and alphabets but couldn’t recite even a single letter.

And then the auspicious moment arrives when you receive your Tickets in hand.. I say auspicious bcoz I have seen people visiting holy places with their passports and flight tickets.. (Mind you, not to crack your nerves.. But yeah I have seen those few).  You Finally are rest assured after you board your flight with your handful of luggage.. You then try to make a abode out of a home in Ameri Land.. you dwell and try to make peace with your situations.. Only to occasionally visit Hamara land and Often brag about How much you are missing it..

Do You really Miss it ?? Given an Opportunity Will be back ?? Think About it ??
