“Day 11 today in the US and here’s a thought I had yesterday evening. It might trigger some of you. But if online text with somebody’s opinion triggers you, that's a space you should totally work on and protect for your own energy ,” X user Niharikaa Kaur Sodhi wrote.
Then she listed the things that she thought made up for her “luxurious life in India” - “quick food deliveries”, “10 min grocery delivery”, and “affordable household help”.

However, after her visit to the US, she said that she realised “basic things” like “clean air”, “ongoing electricity”, “availability of water”, “plenty of greenery”, and “good roads” are the “real quality of life”.
She then wrote more about her thoughts on the quality of life in both countries. “Anyhoo, perhaps it’s my definition of quality of life and luxury that has changed. I don’t know if I’ll ever attain any of the above. But it’s definitely a thought in my head,” she wrote and concluded her post.
