God created
rocks, mud and wood. Man created cement, concrete and steel. God never intended
the natural habitat of man to be polluted by things that man created.... But
then God never knew that he had created such an intelligent being who would
evolve the gift of creativity as he himself evolved over millions of years.
Science was supposed to be a boon, and man ended up being a slave to science.
Imagine a world without the inventions of science. Houses built of rock and mud
and wood, with natural ventilation, i am sure everyone reading this blog would
shudder to live in such a dwelling. We have got so used to living in the
comforts of our modern day dwellings, that we tend to overlook the
disadvantages of living in cities. I agree that the more comfortable things in
life are found in cities, but take a moment to think about it, and you will
realise that the real wealth lies in proximity to nature. Try to compare the
air, the water, the food that you have in the modern cities to the air, water
and food that you will find in villages and the mountains. Any person who
really cares for quality will agree that the life in the villages is much
healthier. I strongly feel that the facilities that cities provide are no match
for the healthy living that villages offer us. I am sure there will be many
detractors who will argue that medical facilities in cities are incomparable to
those available in villages. But my reasoning to this argument would be... if
one lived in close proximity to nature, the ailments that you suffer in cities,
would never reach you. Take a simple test...and count the number of man made
chemically created things that you use since the time you wake up in the
morning till you sleep. You will be surprised that people living in the
villages, use less than half the number of these chemically created things and
yet live far more healthier and longer lives.
Finally, when one thinks of the reasoning that I offer, he would have no
option but to agree that if we do continue on our merry ways, turning a blind
eye to the effects of pollution, there will be a time in the near future when
all human kind would turn back to living in villages. Hardships faced in living
in villages are surely much easier on our lives than the modern day ailments
found in the cities. Bottom line is...
Roads are
black, the dwellings are grey
As black as
the night, is our modern day
Cities may be
bright, but villages are green
That's what matters, to lead a life clean
