Orient-Occident

The west is sadly negligent about a few delicate nuances of life in the east.. For example, abhimaan- which literally translates into self-respect- means a lot more than that. Its that feeling which stays even when you have heard the word 'sorry' for a thousand times and are still trying to rationalize the entire sequence in your poor muddled brain. My friends here would call that getting hurt.. but sadly its more than that... Just like potol.

Potol
is a veggie absolutely typical to the Indian subcontinent and hence has no other name.. So most would not know what I am talking about when I keep on raving about it. Which is such a loss!
