Aah, I was on a traveling spree all these days. Here I am sitting in the Sampark Kranti, with a laptop on my lap which is nearly outta charge. Yes, I am a passenger in he Indian railways transporting from the mini India, Delhi to God's own country, Kerala and then finally to the land of dosas and idlis and Rajnikanth, Tamilnadu.
Sitting here in the train, we are being served digestable counterfeits of pongal and Upma, surrounded by a family comprising of notorious ape-human kids and I-don't-Give-a-damn parents, the wafting scent of the oh-so-famous IRCTC controlled toilets(No offence) and a frustrated,sleep-deprived and backache-ridden mother, All indicating that I am having a pretty much normal ride. Now this talk is not about the perks of the railway system because there are many people out there to speak about it and well, being the largest railway network in the world, Indian railways is doing a pretty good job.
As I was sitting and staring out of the window, because that's what all sensible people who have nothing else to do, do. I realised that same sceneries that once seemed boring and monotonous to me, spoke volumes for me this time (The advantages of being a writer).
As I woke up the sun rays kissed the green leaves and created a warm atmosphere. The yellow-green farms reflected the glory and handiwork of our laborious farmers, mustard and rice are my favourite. As we moved from state to state, the weather changed, so did the wind. From Madhya Pradesh to Tamilnadu, we saw the ever ranging trees and changing fruits. And as the sun set, spreading its arms wide creating an orange-purple hue and the clouds teaming together to create this fuzzy scene, it seemed awesome, scratch that- It was magical.
But you know what, it pains to think that someday this would be gone. No trees, no grass, crass hot sunlight and mobilized farms. All because of us and our goddamn pollution. We might be celebrating earth day, but mother nature needs no balloons and speeches and debates and dances. Mother nature needs care,love and action. We need to save our earth.
Let me tell you an Idea. Go and unfurl yourself in the lap of nature. Bask in its warmth and beauty. Spend time with nature and I am very sure you'll develop a protective and possessive nature over it.

P.S.- I know the title is misleading, but we need to save our best beauty, nature anyhow :)
