Ahmedabad

The worst part is that it comes so late. The best is that it is here. The rickshaw wallas in Ahmedabad were the most honest I have ever come across till now. 2:30 in the morning if someone goes by meter without charging anything extra, that’s it. Watching the kids do most of the talking was such a beautiful experience. It is so amazing that sometimes these kids instill confidence in the grown ups, with all those simple and innocuous deeds. And so comes the thought which has been in my mind since then. Read it at IndiCorps office. “If you are here to help me then you are wasting your time, but if you come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let’s work together”. Special thanks to Dev Bhaiya for providing us with the shelter. Finally one more thought which I read in the IndiCorps office. “A small body of determined spirits fired by an unquenchable faith in their mission can alter the course of history”. There is lot more to come.
