Village boy
We were travelling on bumpy dirt roads for quite sometime on one hazy morning in Uttar Pradesh. The villagers were just woken up, having their bucket baths and sweeping their front yards. Eventually we got to this village where the residents- just like in so many parts of India- are still living a simple life. You may see a satellite dish or a tractor, but overall their lives are the same traditional life. Natural and blissful. Based on cows and cultivation of the land. This little boy was so peaceful. Anyone who goes to India knows that begging is part of the culture and these little village boys and girls do ask for a paisa -or these days for 10 rupees. I haven`t had any money and he still stayed around, intrigued by the stange foreigners and allowed me to take a pic. Just by thinking about it I feel the same peace.
We rush here and there chasing mirage in the desert. Where happiness actually lies in simplicity.
