Dadi sat in the sun, watching Ratan and Jai walk off up the valley and disappear over the hill. She was feeling restless, and decided to go to her favourite spot near the stream to sit. She walked along the cowdung covered track to the stream.

The stream was a meeting point for the ladies of the village. A common working area, where washing utensils, clothes and even having baths was less a chore for the company. No one was there.

I'm not much either on personal vanity or on the exploitation of vanity by the corporate world. Of course, anyone who's seen my picture will recognize instantly that, as far as beauty goes, mine is a case for Saint Jude. This circumstance does have a benefit - the money not spent on beauty aids is available for trivial matters like food, clothing, and shelter. It also means that, when I need eyeglasses, I can pick up a pair for $10 from Walgreens, rather than investing a fortune on contact lenses and the forest of products needed to maintain them. Which means I'm immune from the latest health scare - eye disease from contact lenses.
