Closer to Nature

The childhood days are gone.Gone are the days when i had tours in India atleast once a year with my parents.I have already visited various nice tourist spots all over India.The only thing that drags me is Nature.The magnificent beauty of the Kanchenjunga;the snow covered peaks of Himachal Pradesh(e.g.Rotang Pass);temples of Haridwar,Vrindavan which carries rich cultural heritage of our motherland;greenery of Munnar(Kerala) tea plantations,the confluence of three water bodies in Kanyakumari;and numerous other mesmerizing scneries are still captured in my mind and i can never forget them.Those are the memories i cherish in my leisure time and i feel that i am once again close to the Nature.
Now the scenario has changed.I am working in a MNC and life has turned into a brakeless vehicle.At every step i remember the movie title staring Tom hanks 'Catch Me If You Can'.I am leading a very busy life and i always crave for a holiday.No its not only a holiday i need a long vacation.Putting a heavy brick on my heart i had to say to my mom , "Ma,Please you and daddy go for the trip to Andaman coz i won't get time".
Its reality that i have to put my inner feelings in a shell and covet everything just for the sake of my job.So apparently i am detaching myself from the mother Nature.Corporate life is changing me a lot and we people have to mould ourselves according to the environments surrounding us.Its a real tragic when a person gets accustomed to the artificial corporate life and he or she eventually likes it.Damn!If you can't feel that becoming close to Nature can provide momentarily joy and a balm to the sore mind,then i must admit that you are no different than a machine.Yes, we must realise the fact that machines have turned humans into machines.
I don't care if people disagrees with me because i have pen down whatever came from my heart and i know i am right.I dream for the time and i have to wait for the time when i will put behind this materialistic,artificial corporate life and once again stand amidst the beautiful trees,mountains,lakes,rivers...I wish that once again i have a trip to a unknown place in India.All i can do is just dream right at this moment...
