As a famous poet said, “What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare.” We have all learned that nature is man’s best friend. Does anyone find time to just sit and listen to the sounds around us? The answer is sadly a big NO. India is a country which is adorned with much scenic beauty. Due to the captivating geographical beauty, we have places that are called ‘Gods Own Country’, ‘City of Garden’, ‘paradise of earth’ etc. Sadly these gifts of God are slowly diminishing. There are people who go for morning walk to avoid health hazards like diabetes, cholesterol, blood pressure etc. If we watch these people closely, we can see that even when they are walking through canopy of trees in a park with sounds of birds chirping around them, they will have their headsets plugged onto their ears. It would have been better if they just listen to the music of the birds, feel the rattle of the breeze and enjoy fresh air around them. This itself can improve our health. Many a poets have described nature in its full beauty. If we live hand in hand with nature we can avoid being stressed. As we all know stress is the prime cause of all diseases. When we build villas, sky scrapers and concrete jungles around us we should also think about planting at least one tree for each building we construct. We all should find time to just stand and stare.
