The Jai Shri Krishna Syndrome

"Jai Shri Krishna".. This is the first thing my nanny tells me every morning.
As soon as she sits in the car , she greets me and Rohini as such. She started this ritual from day one..

One day, I asked her, why do you and other gujrathi's do that?She replied, saying it makes the day go better. So it went on for days,As soon as she sat in the car, I would say good morning "x" aunty and she would reply Jai Shri Krishna.

After a few weeks and feeling more awkward with my anglicized good morning, I started responding to her with the same greeting . Just recently I realized that my day goes so well after I say that.

Glad she made me do that
