The lady in the image , i had taken this photo in june 2006 when i made  a vist to bombay , this lady  was at the elphanta caves (an hour journey from the gate way of india) . There were a group of women who were selling drinking water .She had only smiles even though she was carrying three big pots full of water she sold for just INR 5.00 for a glass (100ml)  .

How many of us give three cheers to thee women , who smile with loads and loads of stress and pressure on them.

Please do give ur cheers when you surely come across these ladies.
