Happy Independence day !

Today is Independence Day in India... Since more than sixty years, India is a new country, and no more an english colony, even if english is kept as an official language...

New country but old culture, old realms put together to become a strong nation. One of the most ancient society in the world still lives in the heart of this country, of these people ! And I think that the indian national anthem gives a good feeling of this special mix...

I wish a very happy Independence Day to all my indian friends !!

... in France today is holiday - chutti - also, but with religious origin. Catholics and orthodoxes celebrate the day when Mary, Jesus' mother, died and has been directly raised to heaven with her body.
