"An Exhibition"

                   Last day after work and evening mass, i planned to go out with my mom to see a Gujarati emporium which they had arranged in Jawahar Balabhavan nearby my place, just 4/5 Kms away. It had been too long since i last witnessed an exhibition conducted by the North Indian people. I needed to go somewhere as i was longing for it very badly because i have been working at a stretch and my psyche needed a refreshment.

"Shining beads displayed for sale"
Hectic days at work has rendered me emotionless and tiring these days. There is no option available, but to pull through. 

Common to all exhibitions conducted by them, i saw this multicolored and shining beads used for making chains for women in sizes small to big. By showing these sparkling gems and stones, they are intent on pulling in ladies.

"Tribal Jewelry in varied shapes & colours""
The exhibition ranged from clothing to wooden articles , unreasonably priced which we get in the markets here at prices much lower than considered. I met a woman from Ernakulam, named Sony who was so dynamic in her 60's, to offer the products and garments she displayed for sale. She dealt in cloth materials for home.After buying from her some cushion covers, dining table mats and table runners for home, we moved on to the next section. And she was the only South Indian woman among that group of North Indian men. I wondered how she managed to be among them alone. 

Braveheart indeed.
