Today was saturday and i enjoyed it in my own way. I woke up at 10 in the morning..had tea at 11..after that i had lunch between which i read the newspaper...and after sometime today i went out alone. I went out to shop for myself so i went to the ATM and got 5000 bucks....and i went on for shopping. But i couldnt buy anything for myself..i just couldnt choose..so maybe i'll take my friend out tomorrow to shop for me..too confused u c. So after that my friends were at the beach waiting for me. SO i reached there ....and this very sweet girl..she was a kid.....she came to me and told that she wud make a tattoo for me...please have it...I mean she was just so sweet that i cudnt refuse it.......she had an elder sister also. Their names were "SARIKA" and "MANISHA".........i had two tattos.on my arm.....one scorpion and anothre " OM "....a religious style symbol now.........these are not permanent..just 10 days or so. SARIKA actually studies in school........i liked it very much when she told me that she goes to school .................she is really sweet..in 3rd grade....after coming from school she comes to the beach with her box..making tattos for 5 bucks...i really appreciate that girl....she works ..goes to school..at an age when kids are supposed to play....i paid her 50 bucks...not just to show my money....but really....i somehow liked the spirit and swetness of that girl.....she is very sweet. In india..this is very common...kids working..child labour..they are forced in to it...because their parents cant afford anything for them.....and our silly government....its too corrupted to do anything for them. I told here that i would come next sunday also and asked her to meet me .........and she told me" Everybody says that, No one comes"..............i felt bad......u know had i lot of money...i could have adopted her.she is very smart..and she is just how much 9 years??...........there are lot of kids here who just have so much in them but not the right resources..not the right people....people who want to do something for them arent rich enough..and those who have money..they are busy making more money for themselves driving in their sedans..........but kids like them still make a place for themselves in this cruel city.......i hope and pray to god that SARIKA and evrybidy like her..grow up to be great people...

Hello Ashok, thanks for visiting my blog and leaving your heartfelt comment. I love to learn about all cultures and ideologies. We are all so much more the same and have so much to teach each other. If we only realize what a wealth of experience we could give one another. I will come and check in with your blog too. Be well and enjoy your tatoo. :)
So did you ever go see her again..??
