I had mixed feelings: Happy that someone found at last what she was looking for…
Then, the Community health person inside me said: but why at such a cost? Is wellness, health, happiness not our birth-right?
I think, the story is very familiar to many of us- but we can still learn something from it. IT is challenging the monopolies, the old structures – and increasing the access of common men and women to information.. Same need to happen in this field too. Happiness, wholeness is my right – and I should not be forced to spend thousands , to access it..
