Dear Citizens,

I received this short story from a friend through his mail (on the face, it read silly), but upon reading it the second and more times, I felt that I could convert it into a training module for self-improvement. Nature and its inhabitants teach us every day, but we often ignore them. Pay attention, and we can learn from insects too.

Hello Jude Mayne,

Very well presented. The first of the Seven Habits of Stephen Covey has been revisited: Being Proactive. Proactive persons, as opposed to reactive persons, approach calmly. According to Covey, proactive persons have the freedom to choose from self-awareness, imagination, conscience, and independent will.

Thanks for posting the ppt.

Ironically, a similar situation arose this morning when a motorcyclist was weaving in and out of traffic, and a lady chided him, though he did not touch her car. They got into an altercation, leaving us all stranded for a good 10 minutes.

Reaction to an incident where the response should have been, "ignoring a fool."

Hi Mr. Jude,

This morning, I was thinking along the same lines as presented in your PPT. Nature teaches us many things. What I learn from nature is - "If we harm nature in any way, nature will someday retaliate in a manner that we cannot imagine."

Have you observed plants growing on their own, asking for nothing, yet offering us fruits, flowers, and many useful things? Even if they don't directly benefit humankind, they play a crucial role in balancing our ecosystem. I find it remarkable to contemplate and relate to human values.

I hope all readers will appreciate sharing their thoughts.

Thanks,

Well said, Mr. Bijay Majumdar. Nature gives us many good things without expecting anything in return. For the benefit of all our readers, I am sharing an old Sanskrit Proverb.

Greetings Colonel,

The fresh perspective on the ordinary that you posted is thought-provoking! Maintaining balance and equanimity is the key to peace according to the 'Gita' too! An excellent presentation that needs to be shared with a wider community!

India will never develop if this is the attitude everyone conceives. If the same had been thought by our freedom fighters, we would not have gotten independence as well. Fools are growing day by day because of this ignorance. Moral policing is the only way out. Sorry for the wrong quote for the wrong topic, but wanted to oppose the wrong thinking.

Hello Kritika Singh,

You have made a very valid point. Abuse due to human activity has reached alarming proportions. Global warming, pollution, environmental degradation, many species and wildlife disappearing, etc., have all become big concern areas, unlike ever before in the past. It is time that we respect nature more for the prosperity of posterity.

Hello Kritika Singh,
I came across a beautiful quote by a German Philosopher.
Considering the time he made this statement it is amazing.
“The world is beautiful, but has a disease called man.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
He made this quote in the 19 Century, a period when industrialization
was relatively in a nascent stage.
Since then we have gone from bad to worse.
Time to make amends and restore NATURE to its glorious past.
