Indeed there is competition and there is scarcity of resources here as there is everywhere else. And the dream that we came here looking for may not seem all that rosy all the time but it was only a dream and this time in Mumbai you must face reality. Mumbai always puts you face to face with realty the way life is and may be always was. And yes you will have to struggle just like everyone else, and wait your turn for the auto ride or the seat on the train. All the time you are uncomfortable you are joined together with the rest of humanity who are similarly discomforted or worse. So you would like a cushy living and trust me so would everyone else. Nobody promised you that achieving your dream would be simple but alas it is the possibility that the city offers and not the promise. And, as the faces wait for the train every morning there is a cheerfulness of a shared dream or at least of shared hope. So remember when you come to the city do not expect a red carpet welcome but you might still expect a sympathetic smile, a helping hand and a warm hug even if you are lucky.
So go for it baby the world is your oyster, so what if you are not able to solve all the problems be happy if you are able to solve some of your own problems both the significant and the insignificant ones. Remember you cant carry the weight of the world in your solder but just carry your own weight and if possible lend a helping hand to make Mumbai a better place to live in. and not to forget when in Roam do as the Romans so take a chill pill or go for a snack preferably a varapao that ought to lift you up after a tiring day.
