When did you Last Kept Still for an Hour and Did Nothing?
When was the last time you lay down for an hour and you were awake? OK tossing and turning is not counted. I did it today morning at Rait, the spa at Suryagarh, Jaisalmer. I went for a Bliss Bali massage and it was sheer bliss to be pampered for an hour while the mind just thought of…
Ladies with a Big Nose Ring, Jaisalmer, Rajasthan
