DO YOU LOVE YOUR HOMETOWN
Monday Morning
Ponderings
By
VIKRAM KARVE
Pune is my hometown.
I love Pune.
That is why I settled down
in Pune after my retirement from the Navy.
I have seen that Punekars
love Pune, their hometown.
Many Punekars serve all over
India
But one thing is unique
for all Punekars – they all love Pune, their hometown.
That is why all Punekars
settle down in Pune after their retirement.
This is the true test of
whether you love your hometown or not.
If you settle down in your hometown after
retirement - you love your hometown.
Those who love their
hometown settle down in their hometown.
If you settle down in some other place after your
retirement - you do not love your hometown.
Those who do not love
their hometown settle down in some other place – they do not settle down in
their hometown after retirement.
Please note – I am not
talking of job relocation during the course of your career.
I am talking about
settling down after retirement, after you have finally hung your boots.
Now, Dear Reader, tell me
– DO YOU LOVE YOUR HOMETOWN ?
