The place i live in now can be termed as a big town or a small city: the way you look at it. It is strange that as one lives in a place, over time, one starts to see the good which the place has to offer rather than crib about all things bad and gone wrong. When i first came here, i thought it was incredibly hot as in temperature-hot, even from calcutta reference point.

But this small city has given me so much - a home, a job which i am although partial about, it came to me when i was almost hitting bottom and more importantly - a feeling of being home.

When you have lived in a big city all your life you start noticing the differences immediately, not to mention the way of thinking of the people. It needs to evolve, a lot, true. Also - this place has No Pub :(

But what is best about such a place like this is that it has tremendous chances of development, given the right kind of attention and resources, maybe on the lines of pune or hyderabad (more the latter cos of the climatic conditions). It has ample space to breathe for the people as well as for itself and it is developing in a planned way unlike adhoc like bangalore or calcutta. The latter is bursting at the seams and the former...well much has been said about its infrastructure and how the local people are unhappy with the sudden increase of population and the resultant change in weather.

I like this place. It is scorching in summer no doubt. But like i said it has given me too many things to be thankful about.
