I have become a very busy person recently, I even do not have time to read!! I had decided to blog my Morning walk experience, but I find difficulty in finding time to update. Finally in midst of a very busy schedule, i manage to write this. I read a tweet which said, browsing during work hours increases productivity. Its true!!
Well, I everyday encounter this lady between 5.45am - 6.00am (except Sunday's) who is bending and drawing wonderful curves in front of her house. Let me tell you what exactly she is doing - Its a culture here that ladies get up early, get cleaned up, sprinkle water in front of their house ( not with the intention to clean the area) and scout down to draw what is called as "Rangoli". According to my knowledge, the reason for doing this in earlier days was is to offer the rice flour to the ants, so the starving ants are contended. Some animal is happy because of their service, and its in this mannerism. But now its completely changed, the drawing is not done by Rice flour, but my chalk powder, which none of the animals would taste. So, the whole idea behind drawing this is lost.
If there is anyone who could tell me any other story behind this culture do let me know. As usual, couple of snaps here for you.
