I am thankful for.....

Exactly a year ago, on 27th April 2005 we set out from India to the Unites States of America!
We were leaving behind a place called home to venture into an unknown land with a 7 month old baby.
But after a year if i look back it will be fair enough to say -Its been like home.This has been made possible by number of forces and i am thankful for them....

-Thanks to the booming software business, not a day goes by without seeing a new Indian face in the city!
-Big cheers for the High speed internet connection-i Catch on first film reviews ,latest in Bollywood,Politics,Cricket minute by minute as they unfold .
-Thanks to the gujju community who are running a good grocery business here-never miss Haldirams,Khakras or chats here!Its all readily available.
-Thanks to the geeks who upload all the latest hindi films,shows like coffee with Karan,Indian Idol episodes online-catch them all.
-Reliance India Call...the connection is fast,clear and cheap...talk to folks back home 3 times in a week.


I guess there are many more things i need to be thankful for which have made our stay in this faraway land feel just like home!
But in the end i would stress on the fact-It feels like Home but definately not home!
