The grass is always greeener on the OTHER side mate..
Well said Jag well said... I read a poem by a great Nobel prize poet in which a guy dreams standing on one side of river bank thinking all the fantasies one can have is on the other side of the bank. But is it? U will know once u reach there.
Yep, exactly.. And my advice to you baba is to learn to see the positive aspects or where you are living. Just as you are so desperate to get to Brisbane, many people the world over are desperate and would love to move to the USA. Every place has his plus and minus points, and Brisbane is not without its share of many minuses. Brisbane is also quite stressful and times, has become very expensive, and very competitive, bad traffic, long working hours etc etc etc...
Enjoy what you have mate and make the best of it instead of whining and complaining. And as for your parents, I understand why they wouldnt want to leave and come here.. If your dad has his own practise in the US, he has it pretty much made.. If you have a successful business out there in the West, nothing like it and I wouldn't want to come here either.. and I know a few doctors and dentists that tried Brisbane out and then left back for the UK and US since they were making almost the same in Brisbane as in the US but missed their lifestyle back there..
So make the best of what you have mate.. and in the future you could always come down, once you finish university (which is better in the US anwyays)...
