Last few days, the incessant rain
had been lashing down on our
desert village.
In the balmy breeze, sunshine and
intoxicating air, I felt as if heaven
had descended on earth.
The inhabitants of our village were
all geared up to enjoy
the autumn season.
My village is my paradise, as it helps
me to bond closely with everyone.
I feel joyous environment when I saw
tribal dance and listened to the
romantic music.
I eat salad with meals which includes
rice and simple fish curry or
different seafood.
Since I have a habit of dancing, I am
very strict about not consuming
carbohydrates after sunset.
I drink a glass of lime juice with
honey every morning and enjoy
a heavy breakfast.
I need to awake my inner conscience,
as struggle, dislike, depression,
hatred are all part of our life.
I could realize that everyone goes
through various trials and troubles
during the course of our lives
