“A photo says, You were so happy and I wanted to catch that. A photo says, You were so important to me that I put down everything else to come watch.” ~ From Jodi Piccoult’s My Sister’s Keeper

the hopes and fears of a little girl living in a big world
I just ran across your website looking for photos of Krishna deities from ISKCON, and found a May 2008 entry of your preparing to go to India.
I find your blog interesting. You post about a lot of different things. I’ve never been close to tornado, I’m so far away from it.
Having been brought up in ISKCON, worshipping deities of Radha and Krishna and going to temple, I feel like India is a part of me in some ways. But I’m not Indian, and I’ve never been to India…so that’s weird.
Anyway…I like your blog. =)
And about text-flirting in India…that’s funny!
I commented on the wrong post last time. Sorry about that…*feels stupid* I’m used to Blogger.
I like this quote from Jodi Picoult’s book. Aren’t they making a movie from that? It looks sad, but I want to see it anyway.
When people say they won’t watch a movie because it’s sad, I think they’re missing out. Sad means it was dramatic and affected you! Take “Devdas” for example (my friend is still recommending me Bollywood movies, and so far I’ve really only seen the ‘big hits’)…it’s a really sad ending, but you learn to love it anyway. (My American college friends, brought up in American culture unlike the semi-Indian semi-American culture I was brought up in, thought Devdas was a stupid drunk and had no sympathy for him. It was so weird! When I finished watching ‘Devdas,’ I cried).
Rambly…sorry. It’s just, I can relate to some of your cultural differences stuff, because since I was brought up following Hindu religion, some of my values are from India, not America.
