Diminishing Wealth By Swetha

I'm Here to share the experiences of the changes in context with the diminishing wealth. Wealth? It does not mean the property that we have earned through out our life putting every means of effort that we can but it is the natural wealth that is available for free to each and every individual in many different forms. The concern towards this is really not letting to be what I'm and the result is that I have to put all the messed up feelings in the form of words in front of you, ruminating my past.

Oh I haven't told u what the natural wealth that I'm concerned most about these days is right? It is the very precious, necessary wealth that is Greenery, the plant kingdom around us.

Do u remember of your days when u were taken into your back yard by your mom when you pestered by not taking your food(need to change). But then you emptied your plate running round the bushes, plucking off the leaves and flowers. We filled up our tummies destroying the tiny plants without any notice.

The gardens that u have been to on every holiday with your neighbors and cousins. The way all of us played in the grass. Do you find the same greenery in your near by garden now??

School Days.. The best part of one’s life. Our schools with trees planted systematically in all the four corners. Every lunch hour we had a cool time having our lunch boxes under the trees. But now we find the schools in storied building where no single tree is found.

The college days, though did not find much time in spending with the plants, I gained a lot of knowledge about them taking Biology as my stream. The days that we had been to tours, taking snaps with funny poses in front of every tree.
Trees are very much a memorable part of our life. The first day that we shared our thoughts with our better half under the trees.

We really had a peace of mind in taking care of the plants that we bought from the near by nursery.
But now there is a drastic change in the way the trees are taken care of. They are considered as the first obstacles in widening the roads in the metropolitan cities and are immediately cut down. No proper facilities are provided to the trees. We can no more feel the cool breeze that our grannies have very well enjoyed. We are taking a very active part in polluting the environment by using air conditioners, etc..We are destroying our own healthy future.

We are not preserving any healthy kind of enjoyment to our future generations that we have enjoyed. For refreshing themselves they have to depend on video games, TVs which gives no physical excercise to the body instead turn them obese.

Being educated so well and aware of all the hazardous effects of destroying the natural wealth, nobody on earth is making some time of their life to preserve them. We neither take into consideration the ideas and the requests put forth by our elders or the social services organizations.

I would like to see a change in people where every one considers plants as their own child and be more cautious in not destroying them. There should come a day where every one should make it a habit to share the knowledge about the importance of the trees in one's life. Doing this we can expect that the future generation would also enjoy the world in green. If no proper care is taken at this moment, the next generations has to gain the knowledge looking at the photographs or the models that are set up in the exhibitions. Lets not expect that day.

Let's promote people to plant trees and take good care of them as there are many need that are satisfied by them like they help us in our good health, we can relax ourselves from all the work load and personal tensions. Let’s all bear that plants also have life in them and nobody has a right to seize it off for one’s needs.
