Read on Twitter
*I think* the happiest person in the world is probably someone living in some tier 3 city, has a good relationship with his family, does not even know what startups are, has a job at some bank or something, comes back to his home on time, and gets a good night sleep.
He does not care about Silicon Valley CTCs on Blind. And has not even discovered Twitter yet.
(Heavily inspired by this tweet which I read and bookmarked a few months back.)

When I was in my early 20s I used to get on a sleeper bus and just travel somewhere. Anywhere. The best part of the journey was almost never the destination. It was lieing on the bus bed, looking outside and passing endless small towns and villages.
I used to always wonder
I used to always wonder
how life might be in those sleepy villages. Was it peaceful or were they also running in some hedonic threadmill?
Maybe I was romanticising it. Maybe it was just escapism.
Finally I realised I could never stay in a place without fiber optic internet.

and my dream of small town Manas ended.
But I still think sometimes "what if". Obviously not for a long time but why not try that life for a month, if not a year.
Maybe someday.

Adding this last point because this is Twitter: This is something I have been thinking about. It does not mean I hate my life or something. I probably have 100s of thoughts every day, each contradicting the other. Like everyone else.
The only difference is I chose to tweet it out. Also while I am talking about tier 3 banking jobs, I am currently doing my 360-degree reviews and hoping to get a good pay hike. I am also planning to order an M1 tonight.
Also I am not requesting a commentary on rural life.

Take whatever you want from this thread. Thank you.
