Another reminder today – I tripped while crossing the road and got a (slightly) bleeding cut on my head and very sore knee apart from some other minor things. (So much for my awareness!! 🙂 ) [Later I figured I hadn’t been very alert mainly since I’d skipped my lunch]. Anyway very luckily though a usually busy road, at that moment had no traffic, else things wouldve been much worse. Also it was a reminder that humanity is very much alive (not that there was a doubt but reminders always help 😉 ) – I was very touched with the concern people – complete strangers – showed me. An auto driver got me some water – and when I went into IDP they were even more hospitable – someone got me some tissue papers and one guy cleaned it using dettol – someone ordered me a sandwich – which under those circumstances, tasted like the best I had ever eaten.
