Kichhi Dukha kichhi Abasosha....
This is a personal experince I wanna share with one & all.. Something specific (sorry to say that I am not able to say it as "special") to Odia people.. It has been few years that I am staying
outside of Odisha...
And whenever I meet any Odia people may it be my workplace,shopping complex or anywhere outside... a different kind of curiousity arises..and out of nothing the lips automatically widen up :)
And yes the conversation always starts with the same sentence from either of the sides "Apana Odia? Mu bi Odia"....
Though I always start my conversation with a happy note, most of the time it ends up in an irritated mood as most of the time I encounter the same FAQ (Frequently Asked Question): "Apananka caste

something more specific to Odia people...
I feel pathetic when I see this type of mindset... It disturbs me to think of the people's question who belong to Lord Jagannatha's dhaam... We must find out good human beings on earth.. It's my

perception that Nice human beings belong to the Superior Caste on mother Earth... Though there is no fine line between Good and Bad.. but yes there exists a clear cut distinction between healthy
and unhealthy thinking...
We are from Jagannath dhaam... we must not have this mentality... dukha aau abasosha etiki je... samaya ete badali chalichi.. kintu badaluni ama mati ra loka nka manasikata...
