"Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
Where words come from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms toward perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Into that heaven of freedom it should be our intent.
( my adaption from Rabindranath Tagores famous lines)

Childrens smiles Stairway to Heaven
At my elder age I find beauty in every child’s face, particularly the poor ones. Their smiles and carefree attitude are so refreshing and unspoiled. At that age they don’t realize that as they grow older the compulsions, complexities and flawed competitive practices to stay afloat begin, and they have no time for contemplation into environs and humanity. I have made a video to express these thoughts and have taken a number of pictures from the internet. Usually the pictures we see on UNICEF programs show children in extremely poor conditions but I think they could carry the same message by smiling children.
