In My Father's Footsteps

Learning that there is much more to medicine than diagnosis and treatment.

A PARTING GIFT

I was doing another one of my "spring cleaning" the other day which was way overdue and I chanced upon this drawing tucked away in between the pages of a photo album. Looking at it brought back a gush of memories. It was drawn by Chinu, my gym partner in medical school, as a parting gift when I finally left India. I appreciated it the first time he gave it to me. He said he wanted to draw something to help me remember India. I think he did a great job!

I just want to show you all the picture. Not exactly Picasso but priceless nonetheless. :-)

    very nice drawing. i took a similar picture with a woman carrying the pot (or was it a bundle of sticks??) on her head when i was there a couple of years ago. now that i have recovered from the bad experiences of india, i am ready to go back there again, this time for a mission trip!

    Anon: All the best in India! I loved the place and the people. Actually my blog is not really a "movie review" site. I just write whatever comes to mind. Btw, do u have a name that I can address you with?

    anon would suffice for time being. hey, im learning something from your post - brokeback mountain, 2nd skin....psst.....don't tell my pastor - he would be scandalised!!! and strictly forbids me from visiting your blog.

    Anon: Well, first of all, I don't know your pastor; secondly I don't think my blog is all that scandalous. Half my church reads it (and my church is a conservative one). Maybe I will do more write up on more scandalous movies in the future. I have a penchant for movies that don't reach our shores....no, not porn, mostly foreign films that no one bothers to watch.
