Thank you, Frederick (Noronha) for this. Do check Fredericks Fintracks, online news, etc.. He is a publisher in Goa, India. You can subscribe. I remember I wanted a Polish lady, with a Masters degree from Warsaw, to work for our company. When we met, she said: Poles are not very important people in Canada. I looked out the window for a while and replied to that point: Sofia, you see those tall poles? They are taking electricity from James Bay to Canadian and American cities. These smaller poles take electricity to buildings in the area. And there are traffic and telephone poles. Sofia, there are more poles in Canada than there are people. What are you talking about? She looks at me and says: you joking with me, no? I replied: no. I have loyalties to many places and people, but ethnically I come from a dot on the world map. Poland is a big country that moved west a bit, lost land in the east, gained some in the west, after WW11. I know the history. Sofia worked with us for 10 years. This is one of the most beautiful & endearing Konkani songs for me. My mother sang it. One wants to dance in one spot, or a very small circle, with someone or alone, even if one is so far away and for so very long. I remember it as a kid: it was almost one of the last songs they would sing or the band play. You knew the party, the dance, or the wedding celebration, was coming to an end. Hum it with me, & take out your handkerchief ! For me, it is a just a childhood memory. guidepost21.blogspot Read the intro in red print, and scroll to end and watch, Battle at Kruger Park. Do not get caught between a rock and a hard place. Ms. Pais, thank you !
