Story Behind The Image –

This makes me remember about the god on earth that is ‘Mother”.
This lady just kept her hand on the window pane and it seemed like she called me “Beta” that means “Son”.
She was looking for her children in each and every vehicle.
Her face was not visible and yes her love for each and every son over the road was the same as the love and affection of mother don’t have a face.
She was asking for “Bhiksha” of love and affection from the people, she was asking for the “Bhiksha” of searching her son who was not with her.
