Reflections of my time in India

I just returned from three weeks in Mumbai.

I was working on a documentary about orphans. But it's becoming about so much more than that.

I can't share too much at this point, but I can say I feel it's becoming a strong story, deeper and more miry than a piece solely about orphans.

Personally, I was stretched. Again. It never ceases to amaze me how easily I fall back into taking things for granted.

I learned about patience again. Our cultures have several differences, and remembering and realizing yours isn't the only one is always a hard lesson to learn. It's an attitude you must have if you are to be effective in India.

I'll post some pictures later.
