An Experience with Nature – II

Another adventure with Rain and Thunderstorm at the mountain

I knew our adventure was going to be toughest in the coming days. Next morning we moved towards our second destination Thimbu. The weather was gloomy. We started our journey in four groups. As I was very slow on first day, our Team Leader said the other members to be with me all the time. Because our trek was going to be tough this time and the weather was also not very suitable for us.
I started my journey with Hiranmayee and senior member Ms. Bhumika. Altogether we enjoyed the beautiful landscape of the mountain jungle on our way. After lunch time, it started raining. After some time, thunder storm also started at the mountain. We were told to walk fast to avoid the thunderstorm. Because of the rain, our trek had become very slippery. I found it a tough job to walk fast on the stiff and slippery trek along with my heavy Rucksack on my back. This time our Team Leader was himself with me along with senior member Ms. Bhumika and Rupak.
I couldn’t walk properly on the trek and my friends were encouraging me to move forward. We saw the whole mountain was covering slowly with the grey clouds. It looked tremendous, that we all were walking through the grey clouds. For a moment, I forgot that we could be struck in the thunderstorm if we would stay there for a single minute. I enjoyed the scene; the clouds were coming towards us at the high altitude. Then my friend Rupak reminded me to keep walking. Otherwise we could face some dangerous situation as still we were far away from our destination. But because of the thunderstorm, I felt cold. My feet couldn’t move anymore… I felt so sleepy. All were worried about me. I was given dry fruits so that I could have stamina to walk.
Two team members were coming towards us for help and finally we could reach our camp Thimbu IB. I was offered hot tea immediately to be normal. My friend Late Amar brought me to Bokhari (a traditional fireplace in Arunachal Pradesh) to make me more comfortable.
Because of the heavy rain and thunderstorm we had to stay next day at Thimbu. Our next destination was Mago, the last Indian village on our route……

STOP VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN!

Stop!!! Violence against women is a worldwide problem that affects women of all ages, ethnicities, races, nationalities and socio-economic backgrounds. Some forms of violence are gender-based and impact women more disproportionately, such as domestic violence, sexual assault, sexual harassment, human trafficking, child abusement and acid attack. Beside these, Indian society is facing two more major violences against women Girl child foeticide and dowry demands.  It is very shameful to say that this society is not safe for females even in this 21st century. Somewhere, little young girls are molested by some sick minded people; somewhere 80 years old lady has to be treated very badly; somewhere if a girl wants to protest against eve teasing she has to be a victim of acid attack. It is seen that some people being upset on the birth of a girl child in thei5r family and the same people look for little young girls to worship on the days of NAVRATRAs. Girl child foeticide, ...

My Friendship day with my Friends in Faridabad

Sunday, August 01, 2010 I met lot of girls in Faridabad but some of them kept an wide impact on me. They are – three kashimiri girls – Nilima, Priya and Rashi.  We used to call them together Mission Kashmir😊😁Mousumi, Neha and Deepti– 3 idiots!😎😎🤩 Last but not the least most important 2 genius – Gunjan and Tapasya. All of them had different natures but one thing was in common that they all were innocent and clear hearted. There liveliness and fun loving natures taught me to live my life with my present and not with my past. Once again I started to live a carefree life with full of confidence! Great!😎🤩 This is a story about when we all planned our first ‘Friendship day’ together except Gunjan. Mousumi, Deepti and Neha planned first how to enjoy the day.

Till then everything was going smoothly and all were ha...

Why Cann't We be Satisfy With Our Lives!

I visited a village in Arunachal Pradesh. A very remote area in Tawang District of Arunachal Pradesh. There was limited facilities in that area. There were no communication mediums, no market or shops, no transport, not enough education facility and not even medical facilities. People had to walk miles of mountain path to get there minimal needs. So there was less value of money; strangely we discovered exchange system!  'Strangely' I am using this word because I had never seen such exchange system before nor I have seen ever afterwards. There were very populations in that village. Education system was so poor that children even didn't know the name of their nation; not even name of their Chief Minister or the Prime Minister of their nation!! Obviously these information seemed useless for their lives. But I found that people didn't have any complain about their lifestyles or against the system. There were happy with what they were getting in lives. I was y...
