A friend of mine, an amazingly energetic human rights lawyer, models her "formal" saree for you all...in her hair is a strand of jasmine, which are sold on the side of the road. Many women will wear these flowers in their hair on a daily basis. For her, it's just a special occasion. The strands smell soooooooo good (especially in contrast to the nearby garbage dump/public restroom...oh, I mean, river).

Wouldn't you know I'd go and ruin a perfectly sweet photo?

You amaze me! Such interesting stories! Not sure I could handle the weather much less the life situations endured by so many. You are brave.
