In her own world

Portrait of a cute girl from Parel, Mumbai
Cute little girl | Parel, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

This cutie is one among the homeless in Mumbai. But she was in a world of her own and it was a pleasure to watch her play and wave the leaves she had in hand while I took this image.

  1. Yes, she’s beautiful. Hope you took her permission before putting the picture up, did you? Imagine she grows out of her poverty stricken stage, learns to use a computer, browses the internet and finds her own photo.. She might just disapprove of all the gawking and pitying. Or do you, secretly believe that she will never make it to the internet. Chilling.

  4. You must really observe them from far quietly.. then we’ll learn how to be happy with what we have in life.. whenever I am sad for not having something, I get inspired by little ones like these.. and try to speak to them and have light moment of joy with them. They are loveliest human being on earth..
