Things We Say

Clicked this one as we were walking from Bharmour to Dhanchow, which is almost half way to Mani Mahesh in December 2005. Even though both of us are not religious in particular, the quote in itself always brings a smile to my face. There was no one for miles around, no sensible person would venture here in freezing December and suddenly we came across this. Kind of difficult to say what I am trying to say, so I will leave you just with the picture.
For those who don't understand Hindi here goes my poor translation: God may be slow to deliver justice but it is quite just. See it all gets lost in translation!
Steve left the exact saying in the comment section: The wheels of justice grind slowly, But they grind exceeding fine. Steve you must have guessed it from my poor translation, or is it that you can read Hindi?

"Kind of difficult to say what I am trying to say" were u trying to say tht the quote was lying there intended to be noticed by u by destiny.i feel the same times :D.btw the train n the volley ball post is ready.
Maverick, I guess we would not have given this stone a second glance if we saw it a crowded Delhi place. It was the serene surroundings that allowed us to ponder on what was written. And thanks a ton for sharing your crazy train story and the photographs.
