Living a Dream!!!

 Like most of us who come from the lower middle class in as they used to call 3rd World World. Where we grew up not really poor, but just an echelon below where poverty and hunger was a truth besides few days in our lives where food was a scarcity. With all these scarcity we grew up as hard working never feeling we were enlightened to anything. We had to earn and create a world where we want to be. So most of our lives we spent seeing we use every minute of our lives judiciously. This during our High School days meant, putting over 8-10 hours in study. Atleast we aimed for it. Could not do as we had to spend 1-2 hour commuting to school for studying.

And as they hard work does pay. And when I think about my life it has been kind to me. Knowing that there are millions of people who are more talented better looking and are entitled to be in my position, I feel humbled that I have what I have. Live in county which is at pinnacle of its height, coming from a culture which only recently has been started being appreciated for it greatness. Finally moved to a place which is considered by many "Time magazine article of why Texas/Dallas is what future of US will be" is the best place to stay (best city to stay after Boston). At a career level, finally able to work in Technology that not only pays well, but with most companies looking in going a big way in the online way, especially with mobile technologies’ penetration and ubituousness. But most importantly at personal level having a very loving wife, and certainly one of the best people I have ever meet and staying at a house in a nice neighborhood of correct size and location.

So looking back, when three of us grew in a 550 square foot space with years where my Dad's business was not doing good, thus financially insecurity. To a house sound-level still affects me still now, to nice work, place to work and great wife and family, I am indebted to people who have made this possible. Humbled that I am, this also carries with a duty to see that with my privilege I do not feel entitlement, but more importantly pass these virtues to others who are as entitled to better living as I am living.
