Blinking at some Older Questions..
Some old questions always keep on popping in my mind. These questions are "old" in the sense that I have already faced them earlier, thought abt them for a while and tried to answer them.. but still they reappear and I have to answer them again with current timeline. Sometimes people keep on knocking at the door with slightly tweaked "old question" and I have to make sure that my previous answer is still valid and logical.
Confused ? .. The "old" but "important" question I am talking abt is "my returning to India for goods".. The question for me is not "Am I?" ... infact it is "When am I?" .. I have answered this question multiple times: at time when I was joining QC, at time when I was really needed at home and also during my last India trip... Whatever decision I have made first time, still holds the ground.
These days, somebody again knocked at my door with a real "googly".. and it made me think again... But.. more the knocking, more it solidifies my position..
According to author of Blink, all the important decisions are made in two seconds and after that you will just keep on justifying your position..
Though I disagree with author abt "two seconds", I am surely experiencing the justification phase.

We, nomadics(away from home?), are not free of thinking "am i at a right place?" Though i decide to stay here, someday again i may find myself as a stranger(to whom? wish it is not to me). When I mentioned "blink", remember you considered a silly book (that kind of behavioral instruction books..). but, did you read that silly book? :-)
"Stranger".. hmm.. after staying here for a while now, I don't know if I am a stranger in USA or a stranger in India... its messier :) !!
Ya.. blink.. read it lil bit and then left it.. too much "analysis" for me :) !!
