To move or not to move? Was that Hamlet who pondered, "To be or not to be".. not claiming to understand what the Bard meant... but this question has been plaguing me for the last one week
So I am on a month long family vacation in the US, and within a few days of landing I have begun to wonder? Why not move back? Not sure if it's the clean air/ water, wide roads/ cool cars? Or just a relaxed life style with a lot more ME time!
I have always wanted the hustle and bustle of India, the chaos kept me happy? Even peaceful so what has changed now that I want to give it all up to move to US
Of course I love the big house with the garden? I sorely missed my backyard when I moved to India.. but I think there's something more. It's the quality time I got to spend with the kids with no late night calls.. am liking the peace and quiet, the morning and evening walks? Breathing the pristine air? Enjoying the driving experience without honks and traffic..
Hmm maybe it is just the vacation and my bubble would soon burst once I get back to work and school, and the dreary schedule
Playing the devil's advocate - I was the same person who couldn't wait to move back to India? Stay close to family and make sure the kids growing up involves their grand parents and extended family. Am I really ready to give all of that up? And move back to America for good?
Both countries has positive and negative. Choose the best that works for your family
