I just want posters on here to try and understand India, my family and I traveled to India last year in November and we had a awesome, amazing, wonderful time. Yes we seen a lot of things in India that really disappointed and angered us, but we also saw some amazing things, the people are amazing and some of the most hospitable in the world. India is a cultural treasure trove and the oldest civilization in history.
India is hard to explain to people, India is a contradiction, everything that you can say about it is true and untrue at the same time. From the extreme poverty and *****, to the amazing beauty and diversity, from the religions, to the food, to the people. My daughters fell in love with this land the good and the bad more than me and my wife.
As a lot of you know I have posted about how disappointed we were with the *****, the public defecating, the dumping of garbage everywhere and yes for us that was shocking and disgusting to see people treat the country they claim to love in that way.
I have made this thread because I think on this site India does get a lot of mud thrown at it some of it is deserved and a lot of it is not. I will post some photos of our trip and I would like all posters on here to comment constructively instead of just taking low pot shots at this great country.
For us India is a country of massive contradictions, a country that is trying to deal with itself and it's history, a country with one foot still in the 14th century and another in the 21st. India is going through growing pains, but it will get there. My family and I will always hold India dear in our hearts, we came back changed people. India won't become a great power anytme soon, it will take a 100 years but it will get there.
Here are some photos, if you guys want more then I will upload more, I hope the mods leave this in this thread in this forum and not move it please.
