Today I felt lucky....so utterly lucky that my anscistors
have made a place for me that no one can take away....not even god. The destiny
that they left for me is here that every time I am upset or blissfully
happy....I visit my village home and take a breadth thanking them for the solace.
I thank them for keeping me in a safe heaven...out of war and famine, disease
and crime. I thank them for giving me clean air and clear sky....virgin water
and unspoilt forests....beautiful mountain and majestic rivers....that they
knew their DNA would remain ever safe and thrive here....I may not have
towering skyscaper...but I have sky touching mountains. The birds and the
flowers and the trees....the romance of the nature and the songs of the
air....today I realized that I am very lucky to leave this legacy to my son and
daughter that they will have same grateness one day. As I smell the grass and watch
waves of rice terracs.....as I see the plume of smoke in winter and people
carrying oranges in their bamboo basket...as I pick up fresh vegitable from my
garden and milk the cow....as I feel the soil beneath my feet...the same soil
felt by my anscistors...that I have this space which I proudly call Home and my
Country that my children will gracefully call theirs.
