...the kind Indians!

I'm in India!! I'm in India for work!!! Its been a few years since that happened. I love being here. There is something fundamentally agreeable and compatible with India as is expected to be being my motherland....!

We (Indians) are by nature simple people! Politeness and kindness are deep rooted in our culture and nature. We are friendly people and often shy!! Too shy and polite to even refuse an unreasonable, impossible and often arrogant demand....

This blog has been coming for a week now. Thanks to my relentless travel and work schedule, it had to wait for a whole week!

The flight from Brussels to Bombay was 'bumpy' and I was more sleep deprived than usual this time around. As a consequence, I had a headache so severe, that it felt as though the back of my left eyeball was being pierced through with a large nail all the way from the left temple!! I wasn't a pretty sight!! :D :D :D

As soon as I boarded the flight to Madras, I requested the hostess to see if she could give me something that'll make the misery stop. That kind lady came down to my seat with a magic pill, some biscuits and some water!! After 15 minutes, when I was fast asleep, woke me up so gently like an affectionate mother would wake her sleep child and enquired about my pain while handing me my special veggie meal. I'd like to believe India is largely represented by kind human-beings like her as opposed to what today's main stream media in India would like us all to believe....
