As the memories come to mind with short flash, so 'strong feelings here I can connect to relevant images. The first runs in front of me who goes back to our brief stay in Chennai and 'the face of a child, one of the abandoned children and lovingly welcomed by the Franciscan Missionaries of Mary and we look out of place from his supine position and does not understand or maybe he understands everything and now, she smiles ... Walking Suranam we encounter a friendly child who greets us, like everyone here, and enter into a yard, and we see him from a distance then walk next to another child, perhaps her brother, for accompany knows' where. Here the boys are holding hands, and 'nice to think that they have arrived here too, the influences of Western culture so ostentatiously open up certain things sadly as hostile to free expression of feelings such as friendship. The brothers here are not concerned only that the school but also are making efforts so that 'the children, not only of St. James (the school of the Brethren, ed), at least they can do homework with a little' electric light. A few nights ago the headmaster Brother Samy and the project leader Brother Alex took us on a tour of these "after-school village." It's strange to think that in Italy we complain, I for one, 'cause we do not have and instead want to study here in one of these places is studied on the ground outdoors in the light of a single light that certainly does not guarantee a good back row lighting.
PS: I want to clarify that, after repeatedly asked for all air travel to be able to make the trip from the airport to Suranam jeep when we landed for us was just a white jeep with a sticker of La Salle along the front glass. Only one case?
