You know how to find me ([info]jenny_grrl) wrote in [info]david__talbot,
You said, "It is so easy for us Englishmen to write beautiful passages about India and to think wondrous thoughts. It is so easy for us to pass off the misery that is evident in the streets and the marketplaces as little more than a facade for the splendour that lies beneath." But you know, it's easy for us all to write pretty passages only to ignore the pain; to write pity-me-prose, as we bend ourselves backwards, over and over, like orgami paper.

It's all perception, David. Relevant-to-that-one-influencing-moment-of-impact that allows us a glimpse beyond the vision-at-hand, whether the picture is skewed to the narrow or the broad.

The real effort is to see with their eyes to find their version of beauty. And who better to find it than you?

As always, I will be close upon your heels.
