Saturday I was talking to a girl whose parents are from India. Describing the overwhelming poverty in the country she said that she has seen a little girl look through cow crap in a search for undigested pieces of grain. During a trip to a jewelry market with her family she told me about seeing a leper with stumps for fingers and no legs. She gave him 5 rupees that he used to purchase a mango which he devoured on the spot.
You know, I have yet to encounter my first Indian homeless person here in the U.S.
