Dear 3, you too are a hero to me. Definitely you are a hero for your four children.
More about Narayanan! Coming from the same Indian state, generation and background as him, I realise the depth of sacrifice he has made. A person like me would not even think, even for a second, of going close to the people he serves, much less give up a lucrative career in Switzerland in your very early 20s. I know the Indian streets and I know the suffering on them. In a country like India, you get to see the most basest of human condition very close. The service that Krishnan does and the way he does it is not at all easy. No praise is enough for him nor can any words describe what he does. It too is beyond words, like time.
May be you can relate to the following video better, if you choose to watch, as it is part of CNN's honour for him. The interview is with Jim Clancy
I suggest you watch it, 3. It is truly moving. CNN did a good job of capturing it as well, in terms of the vividness. You will see how deeply Clancy was moved towards the end of the interview.
Much love to you too, my hero, 3!
