Facebook is another very popular website that the
youth follow. Actually, the youth call it FB for short.
They say, ‘Are you on FB?’ to their friends and
classmates and if they were to ask an adult that they
would simply get a blank stare. The Internet has been
described as a ‘Brave New World.’ And I think this
definitely applies to the youth of India because they
are clicking on likes, following, and posting regularly
on FB, even though they don’t know the etiquette of
FB.
One thing I do at least once a month is go to bed
hungry. The reason is I remind myself that there are
millions (crores) of people in India and around the
world, who do not have enough to eat and so they go
to bed without eating. It is difficult to get sleep on an
empty stomach. I think children should not do this
until they are old enough and physically fit, but adults
should try it out and then they will be grateful for their
meals.
From 2008, I worked and wrote this book and it is
unique because it offers an Indian and an American
perspective. The reason why it includes an American
perspective is because lots of Indians asked me about
how life was in America.
