Swades or Vidhesh?Where's Your Happiness?

Have you ever been in the situation of having to choose between our home country...and a foreign land?
well...I have..UC...i am born an Indian...and brought up all over this wonderful land...I have enjoyed a colourful lifestyle and experienced caried culture,foods,languages...Unity in Diversity..If you know wat i mean...
But then now...after so many years...I feel that i can't even get my bread and butter...happily here...there are so many jobless doctors like me sitting at home and waiting to get that Dream Job at Apollo Hospital...or Some big Hot Shot Clinic..
or there are so many other unemployed Engineers who are the "Less Fortunate" not to be placed..for having done Engineering in some "Godforsaken College" so..wat do people like us...do?
One option is to start our own place or clinic as we docs call our business...as...
But then the Road to a Clinic..Is Aaaah not so Easy my friend...
There's the a Dental chair that costs 1 lakh..Then the Rent for the place..or mayb you have to buy up a buliding?? Either way it's you who's gotta shell out some money...to make your life....No one's gonna give u a job on the platter...
The Second option also depends upon money..but i think it's mentally more satisfying...
Going Abroad...Ask Any Hot Shot IIt'an...Where ur going to work after Grad? ooh...am Gonna US...For my MS..U C...and then us Doc's start having sorrowful faces....cos we all know wat MD/MS..........costs in The US...
so the only other way to climb the bandwagon is to apply for PR...for some country and start prayin that the Immigration Authorities...Know ur life personally and someone is a close Family friend to put ur Papers...thru...
Once the Visa is done...Ur all packed and ready to go....but just think would you be happier in a place that is not your Home after all..a Place thats just a substitute...for Happiness...coz we tend to make ourselves believe...that we are happy in some USA or Australia...
but then in reality we are not...
Sure no one in Chennai or ur village in UP...nows that A doctor like you who did MBBS or BDS...in blah blah blah College...is driving a Taxi in Melbourne...or mayb doing garbage duty in New Zealand...
I have been to New Zealand...and I have seen Opthalomologists...driving Buses...
and it's then I stop to think...is this the Real Happiness...i seek??
Happiness can never be found if you keep running after it..all your life,....it's like a butterfly...that keep flying away..But if you sit still..Happiness..will come and sit on your shoulder...thats How elusive Hppiness..is...
It can been only found within you..
