Why does it happen most of the times that you feel, the person next to you is not going to understand your point of view and you try and present things in a different way then the way you thought it initially. It has been eight long years, that I am in this city and apart from making you dry, this city makes you shrewd, it is upto you if you use it or not. It is not so hard to learn things out here, because everybody across you is out there not to show their skills but to make sure you can't show any. After a point of time, you start understanding that the old logic of "do good to others and good happens to you" seems a long distance myth. But, still, you cannot get away from this logic, it is just that, now you don't expect anything from others. One who can live without expectation, is always happy, but we all know how hard it can be.

When you come to cities like Delhi, for whatever reason it may be, you make a compromise, you leave things behinds...and whenever you leave things behind, you are left with 'a part' of you...a very important portion of you get sacrificed for the compromise you made. The city doesnt make yuo dry or shrewed...it makes you like itself...a city with long, hot, black, ruthless roads...dry barren land...at places masked by patched of greenery....yet I love the city Delhi...for I respect it for its history...I am living in a citt that has seen the political power...weakness...this is the only element..that makes me love Delhi....Yes, it makes you dry...but that dryness to me is like the dried leaf...and there is no poetic justice that do good to others....keep doing good...if that makes you feel good...rets o f it doesnt matter.
Just want to know why the respondent is anonymous:-)
