the symbiotic relationship an indian has with ''jugaad'' ....it so warms my heart :)








this kind of putting things together, making do with some odds and ends, bits and pieces,  is called 'jugaad' in hindi .......and the common woman/man in india is the master of jugaad and so the common woman/man is my hero .........she/he is so poor and their wants so small ...... their joys so manifold ......it is inspiring to see the poor get by in india ...... more than the rich and the famous in india .....it is the poor common person on the street keeping their body and soul together ..... with all the ingenuity they have.... that should be the stuff inspiring stories..... should be made of and spread...

this of course is the personification of jugaad!!! may ye tribe increase and prosper ......as long as u r safe and so r the people on the street ....
