Observation: Indians people are full of laughter and fun. To enjoy living is to enjoy Kolkata. Besides Memphis, no other place on earth has people as warm and hospitable as the people of India in West Bengal.
“I see this man everyday as the man that sells one basket of fruit a day. Noticing that he again has sold all his small basket of fruit, I asked him, why don’t you sell more fruit to make a profit? He replied, the money I make from this one basket is enough for me to survive on and that makes me happy.”
Maitrayee Ghosh (Host Mother)
I feel that this depicts the old India. The new India has the same problem as we do in America.
HOW MUCH IS ENOUGH….?
