There’s just one God!
Religions are just different ways to get to the ultimate positive energy. In the photo, every side of the building represents a prayer house( is that even a word?) of a different religion. I respect every religion.

“… your name please?” “Progga…” “Sorry, what?” “Pragya… P-r-a-g-y-a” “You are a Bengali right? Obhijit, Obhishek… ‘O’s everywhere”.The guy burst out in laughter thinking how funny he was.

Sticking to what you love #71
Who doesn’t want to be cool? But being cool doesn’t necessarily be easy always. Some people feel cool in following the mass and some standing well out of them.
