Actually I returned from Paris ten days ago. I wanted to write this post just after returning but couldn't find time. Life is too busy now a days.
In last two months I visited many places in Paris, seen many new things, meet new people from France and outside France. I got chance to see a different culture, different place on this earth, a different lifestyle, different and very fascinating nature and weather. I am very glad that I got this opportunity. I observed people in Paris, their behavior in society, their respect and faith in law and system. I saw their patience while working, while in traffic or while in public transport. This is something I think all Indians need to learn urgently.
Whenever I was outside in Paris, in my mind, at background, a continuous comparison was running between Indian way of doing things and French way. I was thinking how to bring or do the same things in India, but after two months and coming back, I feel that we have to solve our problems on our own way. Our own ways needs to be found, which will fit in our system. Truly speaking there should not be any comparison between two countries, with so much difference in everything. But, it is hard to explain it to mind. However, the things like values, principles, and good qualities are irrespective of all the differences between France and India. It can be learned and implemented anytime, every-time.
I am thankful for the opportunity to see these, good qualities in practice. After coming to India, I will certainly miss the smiling faces that I saw while traveling, at work, at shop, on road, almost everywhere. I will miss the great nature, weather, cold breeze, maple trees, my favorite metro train, sweet chat in French, Eiffel tower, Seine river, great old architectures. I will also miss simple but smart life. But at the same time I am happy that I am here in India, with my family, whom I missed so much in last two months.
I think that I will visit Paris soon, till that time bye bye Paris...
