Patriotism towards your city????

I am from "ABC" city...my place is famous for blah blah blah.....

Guess most of you hav come across such kind of conversation...same here...was recently travelling to my hometown....and the co-passengers sitting behind my seat started the conversation with most usual topic...."Am from ABC city"

And yes these people were from one of the most happening city of the world as they proclaimed....
This led my interest to eavesdrop the conversation.....
Yes,these people belonged to this set of cities{Delhi,Mumbai,Kolkatta,Bangalore,Chennai}.....Well i dont belong to this set of cities and i dont hav a problem with that...that doesn mean that i have a problem with these cities either....I heard one person say he is a delhi-ite....and how proud he is of the capital city...then the other person say that he is mumbaiya...and nowhere in the world you can people as helpful as in mumbai...
Yea....people usually get emotional and argumentive in comparing thier cities....I hav no complaints about this...I've always respected their feelings they have about their city/town/village....
Everybody loves thier cities...and if u have your childhood memeories attached with that place...you are familar with evry road and lane of that place...then u have every right to be proud of that place..regardless whether its the most renowed city or not....By all means be proud of wherever you belong to....
One thing i get anger about people is proclaiming thier city/town as the best in the world....well u haven't seen the whole world have you???....and yea people passing judgement about other cities...the malice with our society is that we have far more opinions than information...........

I know most of you will agree with me on this.....
