This book apart from my own experiences in Manipur and Karnataka also has a few references tohistory. History in reference to the places I have been or I was posted to work as a public servant.But the historical facts that I have mentioned are not thoroughly researched and I claim no centpercent authenticity of it. These facts are a combination of few readings about the issues that I wasdealing plus the understanding that I got talking and interacting with the local people. I read a fewhistorical commentaries to understand the historical events and then tried to analyse them as Iunderstood them.Also the book is not like an autobiography, wherein I have told everything that has happened withme in these years. The book is in the form of stories that I have encountered in my journey as apublic servant. Those stories that have made me think. These stories that have made me come backto my house after office and led me to contemplate. Those stories that made me learn and get anunderstanding about life and about people. Those stories that made me think have some learningsthat I can share it with others. And in these stories as I have already said are also historicalreferences which made me understand how we are so much shaped by our history and by ourgeography. How we can learn form our historical stories and learn from the mistakes that previouslywe had committed.
