why do one look at strangers or tourists with such malevolent outlook? Is it because we all suffer from different levels of xenophobia or is it our animal behaviour which controls our emotions?

The present condition of Bangalore leaves us with nothing else to think about but the great Garden City losing its virginity at the hands of some strangers who don't know about the culture of this great city...... Even when we shift our house or for that matter a trivial issue of changing your cubicle can always leave behind sometimes very bad taste..... But it doesn't mean that this things are really bad.....

When i was informed to shift my cubicle, my first reaction was "why should I"? They should go somwhere else instead and leave me alone in peace........ But since the shift happened and i got a better place, I moved from my old cubicle happily....

So here i would like to draw an analogy between this situation and the one happening in Bangalore right now. The outlash against is just the feeling that a person feels when he's out of his comfort zone. Something like that people settled in this great city is also stuck in the dilemma whether to join the band or be stranded alone.....

If one walks down a street, the usual sight is two dogs involved in chase and bite situation. This is the reaction of a dog when another tries to come into its comfort zone. The same reaction will be forthcoming in this city too because "Man is also an animal but a social one" in the end. No man will give up his hold onto something he loves very easily......
