In many ways the populus of the Fire in Heart and Fire in the Stomach is the same. I dont feel there is any difference. First off most of the immigrants from Nepal are first generation immigrants who have to support themselves here. We also have to suppport our family back home in some aspects as the expectation of "Amarica ma bhaka chora-chori" is there. We always relate to Nepal becase we grew up there and would love to spend time there, its just that we dont want to miss the opportunities here.
Regarding the laziness factor, dont you think our parents felt like that, werent they bored of going to work each and every day? We didnt feel bored in Nepal because WE NEVER WORKED, at least most of us, we didnt have a fixed schedule. Is it just Nepalese who are dazed and confused? Every one is. There are 6 billion people, how many do you think are not feeling lazy? how many know what they will do in future? are they so sure of the life?
