My Mother Nature
Its in our nature to resist the conditions we are put in till we are used to the conditions and learn to go with the flow. I live in Noth India and here we have exteremes of weather conditions; that is in summer we have very hot days and in winters we get very cold days, and in rainy days the rain does not cease to end.
While I was a little child, in summers my parents never let me go in the sun and in winters I was forced to get suffocated in thick quilts and in the rains , alas I had to miss my school. As I grew up while the wind blew I could feel someone singing a lullaby in my ears but I was conditioned to run inside house in windy weather as dust may get into my eyes. Very soon I got busy doing my engineering studies and rarely got time to spend with my mother Nature who had given me birth, who even gave birth to my parents. It was only after I got over with my studies and got a break of 4-5 months ,that I got time to think over myself and over my surroundings and to admire my mother nature. As it was raining on one of those days,it was the peak monsoon month and I could see everyone running into their houses, I could feel someone calling me on the rooftop of my house--it was my mother nature. The wind was making a beautiful sound, and the trees were dancing to the tone. I felt as if it was the most beautiful lullaby and I lied down on the roof of my house, the rain drops touched my face as if my mother was making me sleep, soon I could feel them on my whole body. The clouds formed a very beautiful shape as if they were crying seeing the agony faced by us mortals in hot and humid days before. In rainy days the temperature almost drops very low just like its in winters but why do we not see anyone wearing sweaters in those days? I think because we are not accustomed to, because it was not the winter season, 'but just a little cold due to rain'.
Winters are followed by summers and summers by winters again. As the winter season ends our mother nature thinks that we need to be a liitle warm and so the summer season and as the summers end our mother nature thinks that we need some cold as we have had enough of heat. All the seasons we face are meant for us to enjoy them to our fullest in this short lifetime but we donot seem to do that , do we ?
After the monsoon season ended we had winters in the beginning phase here. And I could see everyone out in thick sweaters beacause everyone was accustomed to do that but I went out for a walk in my half sleeves and shorts and I never felt cold. I could feel myself enjoying the weather and I thought in my mind 'it was but just a little cold due to rain' and moved on.
