I enjoyed reading everyone's experiences as new comer and as old living. I agreed with most of you. As a new comer in US back 03, I was also helped by so many dai and didi's and they will always stay with me. As time passed on, I helped several new comers as well. As we have saying"Guun ko Badala Guun Le nai Chucaunu parcha". All I have to say, Give respect and Take respect. There are always good ppl and bad ppl, make your wise decision to choose good ppl and hang out with them.
