The Talking Mountains






Category: Mountain and Water

 

 

One of the inseparable combinations of nature –clouds and the mountains making secret love giving birth to rainwater and snow, which ultimately transpires plants and animals living downstream. So let us save our Mountains to save our Mother Earth. This photograph takes me back there spiritually and emotionally and connects me so deeply with nature. Therefore, I promised to love and protect mountains forever. 

#FollowBlogSpottitle: the talking mountains



I grew up seeing different sizes of mountains. "In fact, I was born on the mountaintop" is what my mother narrates to me when she has a good mood. 

 

In my high school, my geography teacher taught me about the importance of mountains –mountains are the crucial factors of water cycle. The warm water vapor goes up, condenses and drops in the mountains as snow and rainwater. From there most rivers of the world emerge. Therefore, it is believed mountains are the water towers of the world.

 

A mountain supports a wide variety of ecosystems like plants and animals that live in the lap of mountains. It is also the source of herbal plants and fresh air. Mountains are the religious places, since many believe that god and deities lived by the mountainside. Therefore, mountains are the symbol of purity.

However, with globalization, unfortunately mountains are under threat from the impacts of climate change, land degradation and overuse. Records also show that glaciers in mountain ranges around the world are disappearing faster than ever due to global warming affecting water supplies for people and animals living downstream.

Iron Lady of India dies at 68.

It was neither a good news to millions of Tamilian nor to the parliament house. But, she will continue to remain one of the most influential person in politics and in the film industries. Perhaps, she became more than the goddess of Tamil Nadu politics. She has been a greatest asset to her country in her best pursuit.

Golden Words Of King Jigme Singye Wangchuck

King Jigme Singye Wangchuck "...in particular, speaking for myself; my sorrow in having lost my own father is indeed very great.

Goodbye Beloved Teachers

When life has thousands reasons to walk and live, I've thousands different ways to spend my coming holidays. So, does you all my ‘teacher-colleagues’ I've been working so hard for nearly, 280 days round the clock in, educating different lives with different wants, likes and ages. Honestly, I've been so busy and fully occupied for countless hours of teachings, correcting exam papers, assessing note books etc… – and that is called the life of a ‘every tangible teachers’. As a teacher/educator, almost every time - life goes beyond teaching and correcting exam papers.
