Proud to be an Indian!

I am a big fan of Thomas Friedman, one of the elitist writer of the present generation. His books, 'The Lexus and the Olive tree' and 'World is Flat', are really impressive and I savored them 'to the T'. He is also a columnist with The New York Times. This is what he had to say in a recent article...

When we were young kids growing up in America , we were told to eat our vegetables at dinner and not leave them. Mothers said, 'think of the starving children in India and finish the dinner.' And now I tell my children: 'Finish your homework. Think of the children in India who would make you starve, if you don't finish.'

Aren't you proud to be an INDIAN?
