Respect

Good morning all! Its a beautiful warm sunny day here. Blue skies, birds chirping. At night you can hear the sounds of peacocks. It is the most enchanting noise. Can you imagine... living in a place where... the older you get, the more respect people show you? Can you imagine that? Close your eyes and try. That is how it is here. Elders are revered. Same as in First Nations Native cultures of North American, same as in Japan. No one belittles them, disregards them or treats them like children. Sometimes I really wonder about our culture in the West. What are we thinking? I'm not saying that Indian culture is superior, (or sometimes some people might think i am saying Canadian culture is superior, when it comes to other things) but each culture has these really great qualities and features. In India, one of them is respecting your elders. Its a beautiful thing. It makes sense, people who have years more experience than you. I love to see the relationship between Nakul's mom (our elder) and the rest of the younger members of the family. So much dignity and so much respect. I hope I treat my mom the same way in the future. So anyways, with that, i am gonna have a hot shower and trot downstairs to see what kind of trouble i can get into. hee hee. Love to all!
