“There
is a voice that doesn’t use words, Listen - Rumi
Botanical Garden Ooty
I
stood near this tree and watched and I was so thrilled to find so many birds,
loved the sight of watching them fly around and sitting on the branches and
chirping; it sounded like these little ones were happily praising their creator
in their own voice J
I
have never seen a sight like this in the recent times, only remembered my
childhood wherein I watched the sparrows were moving around in our house. Today
I find difficult to even show a sparrow to my daughter. So this tree was such a
pleasant sight and I felt like just lying down on the grass and enjoy their company.
I am sure the person who planted this tree may
not be around, but he has left a shelter for the birds and shade for persons
whom he has never met in his life… an inspiration to pay forward in my life
what I have received in abundance.

What a lovely post, Angela. I am so glad that you found so much joy just by tuning into the beauty of nature around you. We need to listen to the sounds and the sights of all that we're surrounded with, but fail to do because we're constantly looking elsewhere for inspiration and happiness. What an irony of our times!
ReplyDeleteThank you Esha, its a pleasure for me to connect with you here, yss our minds are so preoccupied that its a challenge to listen to the sounds and see beautiful sights around us. we must learn to quieten the minds in order to open up to listen to this amazing sounds... its also very refreshing, just to forget everything an sit in stillness aware only of these sounds. Appreciate you for your thoughts:)
