A good friend narrated this incident to me.
He had travelled for an educational workshop to some remote villages in the northern most tip of the country.
Suffice it to say, that it got very very cold there.
Most folks didn’t take bath there for days, he told me.
But he came across one child, enjoying his bath, out in the open, wearing just a small half-pant, and singing bhajans of the Lord.
My friend asked him how he could be so happy when the climate and the water are so cold.
The child’s reply? “Arre sir, kam se kam, yahaan paani toh hai na!” (at the very least, water is available here!)
