MOTHER INDIA

Although probably o word i ay laguage ca fully explai the meaig of irvaa, I foud a quote from the Lebaese-America writer Kahlil Gibra, which is simple ad yet full of wisdom: "yes, there is a irvaa: it is i leadig your sheep to a gree pasture, ad i puttig your child to sleep, ad i writig the last lie of your poem". Like writig a poem, travellig to Idia is a decisio ad ever a coicidece. Ad with each additioal visit, the experiece expads ad allows a deeper uderstadig to a demadig ad fulfillig world. To explore Idia meas to get ivolved i its people, heritage, coditios, emotios ad spirituality. To get ivolved i Idia however meas also to allow ad obtai a ier sight o its ow idetity ad persoality. So, if a mother ad a child share such experieces, good ad bad, fulfillig ad tirig, givig ad takig, they ideed are steppig o the way to irvaa, like leadig a sheep to a gree pasture. Like Mother Idia. I admire Christia ad Myrsii for their stregth to have vetured across Idia ad to have edured eve most difficult times. Both at the begiig of a ew life chapter, they have shared together a momet i time, committed, boded. Like Mother ad Child.
