But our run never stops with that. All these years when we were blindly running behind our dreams, climbing the self built ambition tree to taste the top most hanging fruit, we forget to understand what our surroundings need. We neglect the poor, we neglect the old, we neglect our own family and friends,we neglect our environment, we neglect our politicians and politics and we neglect our own country. We become blind, deaf and dumb to our world.
And once we realize what we have neglected, we understand those things what we never bothered about were the ones which were actually trying to cut our tree and stop its nourishment at many point of its growth. We get angry we fight for it; we get hurt; we lose. We, who are never used to giving up face the failure for the first time. And this failure is faced when we stopped being selfish and face our world as a whole. This failure makes us hate and think loud what has happened to my dear own soil. It makes us ignorant, it takes off the power of determination which we had in building up our own sweet tree.
This failure gives us fear. This fear makes us run. And this run reaches a destination. The grass in the opposite side is always greener. Now we feel we are in a place where we needn't bother about the things which brought us failure here. A place where our words will/may be heard. A place where rights and wrongs can be spoken loud. We become selfish again. We live our lives happily.
And if we get a chance to come back to the place which seeded us, nourished us, let us grow and taste the fruit, we forget it is our soil and curse it. We speak highly of the much greener destination which gave us the freedom to be selfish and forget the soil which kindled our roots to fight and get our own things right.
And this wide spread unacceptable/ painful reality is called 'Brain Drain'.
