Another India

To begin with I would like to appreciate all of the good work that people are doing for the Indian people, perhaps even more than Indian nationals do for their own countrymen.

I feel that theres an image thats stuck with India, mostly to do with poverty and the not-so- good side of things. Apart from this image, India is a surprising country, you never know whats around the next corner. Its more like a fiction - a second and your luck could decide whether you live or die .

This summer, I happened to travel to a place called as the Valley of Flowers, which is situated in the foothills of the Himalayas . For someone who is interested, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valley_of_Flowers_National_Park gives a nice description of the facts .

Although I wasn't lucky enough to be there in the right season, possibly because I was following Dutch time, and forgot that in India, everything works at its own  time ... nature in the least.

The route starts from a village called Govindghat. From there, you climb into the hills towards Ghangria, which is the base camp for the Valley of Flowers and Hemkund Sahib, which is a holy place of worship for the Sikh community.

En route, you get a glimpse of countless people, old, young, fair, dark , all alike climbing with piousness that even an atheist would respect. There is so much of good will in the air, that any negativity goes for a toss, and you are just sucked into the spectacle called nature.
