Yum<BR/><BR/>Jinal: Only when deserved.<BR/><BR/>Vibhor: Thank you<BR/><BR/>Rajesh: No, the title was well thought through. It was about missing India on Independence day. <BR/><BR/>And let's agree to disagree. I think it IS worth celebrating a day of independence. It is not only something to be happy about but also to be proud of - to be independent from an empire's rule. As for conrtibuting, each of us does what we can and each small thing (even talking about our country in a positive way) is a drop that makes up the ocean.30in2005https://www.blogger.com/profile/17890962493413799278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9967255.post-1156265529958719852006-08-23T00:52:00.000+08:002006-08-23T00:52:00.000+08:00I believe the title for this post should have been...I believe the title for this post should have been "I Miss India" and not "Independence Day". <BR/><BR/>Celebrating Independence Day and mentioning "Happy Independnce Day" is not just what it is all about right?

Messy road, restrooms and all the advances it makes in both those and many other spheres. In my view Indians today don't just think of it as a holiday but as a day to mark freedom. But hey thats just me. Enjoy teh cleanliness abroad.
