Ordinariness of their difference
When people say,' why can't you live the British way of life?It helps you feel emotionally stronger and independent',-As if i was born to do that.The fact that I am humane and have my own weaknesses and strength,is not cared for.I really care little about people who try to boast about how excellently well they are in all their English ways,despite being brought up in an Indian family.I pity people who can't think anything beyond themselves.When it comes to me,i am first a Bengali,and then an Indian.I would prefer to have a lot many 'fuchkas' on the streets than to go to a five star restaurant and have my food,with more thinking and with more restrictions and following all the food eating etiquette.It becomes suffocating.I would rather speak more than pretend to be quiet,because that would ultimately make me dumb and i care about dumbness.I would love to stay alone,and then not stay alone and then miss my close people and then call them up,to say how much I miss them or care for them,instead of trying to be in a 'I am strong,i don't need anyone',mood.I would rather like to hear people calling me childish,because that would genuinely define me.If following the highly elite manners mean closing oneself up,and becoming a different person altogether,i will readily avoid it.And it pricks me more,when people who utter such rubbish are actually people who have never stayed out of their domestic places ever and can have everything they want to have, without haggling for it much.How little do such morons know that being human is a bliss,and to be proud of what one is and how one is, matters so much more,that loving others and loving the kind of life one is gifted with,makes you British in more ways than by simply uttering the names of a few Hollywood stars,and a few English series.How little do they know that Englishmen are immensely hard working,and know how to care for the feelings of others,and how little regard they show for people who are way too selfish.And sadly,many people that i know of are actually made up of such snobbish matter,which makes them all the more ridiculous.I am grounded,and native in many ways but i don't need people to lecture me on my ways of life,only if they knew that,Englishmen don't poke their nose unnecessarily in matters that concern them the least.
