Get over the HANGOVER.....

" India is more important to us than Pakistan : US " was the front page headline in a leading Indian daily. Really, its just another story, but when we dig deep into it one will find that it depicts the psyche of educated India. Is there even a comparison between India and Pakistan..... why do we go ga ga when Uncle Sam says that we are more important.... We have to realise, its not their choice.... it is the need of the hour..they have to be with us.....

We need to get over the hangover of being a third world country.....Evey survey, every statement from a western bureaucrat, anything that praises India and that our day is arrived is highlighted in all news papers and news channels... Have a look at some more examples :

BUSH URGES AMERICANS TO LEARN HINDI : In a long speech, Mr. Bush just mentioned that Americans may have to learn Hindi and Chinese to get closer to their culture.
'What's the big deal then'

INDIA TO BE A SUPERPOWER BY 2020 : A stupid survey but XYZ agency of Financial research in the US...

INDIA IS VERY CLOSE TO MY HEART says XYZ : Any Hollywood celebrity that comes to India is asked " How do you feel about coming here?" Here are the standard answers ( which prompt this headline): "Well Its different and its intriguing". "Its really nice, I like the food and the culture"...

FOLKS... Let us show some self-confidence now. If you are doing well, people are bound to talk about you. The last thing that we want is to get carried away with all this talking. Please do not give importance to such stupid headlines.... THEY PRINT IT BECAUSE WE LIKE READING IT.. Please get over this mentality...
