Life at the Mountains

Life in mountains are very difficult compared to the flat lands or cities. When a person from the city plans to visit the mountain area, he or she feels life there must be just like ours, simple and easy whereas in reality it is not at all like that. What my point is ; in the cities almost every thing is at reaching distance, public transports are available easily, you just make a phone call and the stuff you want to purchase will reach home and you make the payment, even if you don't want to go out for shopping you have a choice;in the mountains you have no choice.
                                                                               

Here in the mountains just to buy vegetables you will have to walk miles, that too vegetables will be available if you live near a small town area otherwise you will have to eat what ever grows in your garden. Children walk miles to go to the school as well as back home. No school in the mountains have got buses or cars to drop the children, these schools are normally government run schools.When you have to do marketing you will be traveling at-least 20 to 40 km , 20 to 40 km in the hills means a whole day will go by because hardly 2 buses per day will be going to the city and back, those buses will cover all the stoppages on the way and back.
                                                                                     

In winter days people are exposing them selves in the sun to keep them selves warm. They wait for the sun to come and they literally chase the sun from 7 in the morning to 11 am until the sun becomes really strong.
                                                                     

Some people can afford to buy warm clothing for themselves and their family but some of them are not so lucky so they have to rely on the sun. In in evening they will burn fire-wood and sit around the fire till they eat their food, after eating head straight to bed.
                                                                                       

During the month of December,January and February, old and unwell people really have a tough time.
                                                                                

Drinking water is a big issue in the mountains, government water connections are not there, one hand pump in every village has been dug by the government but some of them don't seem to give water in winter months due to the dry season, some times women walk 3 to 6 kilo meters just to bring a bucket of water, mostly people rely on the river,water falls and water springs etc.

Small town near by to buy vegetable and grocery will look something like this .
                                                               

Heart of the mountain town market will look like this; people purchasing and traveling .

Life of Monkeys


Monkeys are the most common destroyers now a days in the cities. People cant stand them any more, people are always ready to kill them, people are always complaining these monkeys have become a nuisance. Just stop right there and think for a second why these moneys have become problem ?does any one ever think about it ?? NO!  Why would any one want to think about it, they are just  monkeys, a troop of useless monkeys.
                                                                               


Well "Humans" are so so so developed they are killing their own species ,own daughter, mother,father,brother and sister for money, name and fame why would they want to leave anything else, Humans do not care about any thing but money money and money. Humans destroyed the Jungles ( Forest) where all these wild animals were living happily, Humans created Concrete Jungles instead, and still they are complaining these monkeys are nonsense just think for a second who is nonsense Humans or Monkeys ?
                                                                          

Just look at these playful monkeys how cute they are, they would be so happy if they could play in the forest just like their fore-fathers did . They would not be running around for their life , starved with hunger.
                                                                               

People want to worship them as Hanuman ( Monkey God) when it is convenient to them , no one ever really cares how these monkeys are effected .When its convenient to them they will make documentary on these monkeys and earn money but none of them will want to spend their dime on buying a  few pieces of Bananas for these monkeys.
                                                                             

Look at these monkeys how help less they are ,they can not go to the market and buy their food . Many of them have been hit by fire works as people use it to scare them away.


Today this monkey would be sitting on top of a tree branch if these concrete buildings were not covering the earth. Earth belongs to every one, when I say every one I don't mean only Humans , I mean all kinds of beings that are present on the surface of mother earth.Some beings are not effected ,some are effected most commonly we see Monkeys running around for their lives. 

 Don't hate them even if you can't love them. Don't kill them even if you can't give life to them. Don't injure them even if you can't heal them . Don't hit them even if you can't feed them .
