MORNING WALKS

MORNING WALKS I love the morning walk in the walking track close to my home in MANIPAL
The Morning air is crisp clean& cool. With birds too waking up Hopping & calling each other chirping some nudging & encouraging the babies to hop & fly It is a beautiful sight -a feast to the eyes Sometimes if one is lucky peacocks too come at the edge of the track .Even in hot weather it is so cool & refreshing The walking track borders on to the valley below & I can see Malpe beach--or the Arabian sea in the very distance The sleepy Udupi town has become a bustling place with high rise buildings dotting the valley Thank God there is still a lot of green forests in between. The smoke rising from chimneys from early morning cooking in homes who do not have the modern gadgets.
There a green benches to sit if & rest around the track after my 5 rounds I like to sit & chat with the other walkers -Many of them I know only by faces but a good camaraderie between all walkers
it is good to sit & do Pranayama or just let the mind go over random thoughts. One thought leading to another & weaving a web & at some time I have to stop my process of thought & try to trace back how I reached this particular point!!It is like going in/out of a maze
after about an hour I walk back home .By then I can see kids ready for school waiting for the bus or others ready to start the working day
The day started happily shoulod /will end happily always -I firmly beleave this
