You clearly feel very passionately about this issue. I am sure that there are many individuals who feel the same way. The problem is that India is a country with an enormous population, now surpassing the one billion mark and a turn around in the country requires a mass movement. There needs to be real education on a grass roots level for local communities to understand the effects of littering, polluting and burning. Also, an infrastructure needs to be established for waste management, which in many places does not seem to exist. Thanks for your comment Shahda. You clearly feel very passionately about this issue.

Nevertheless, I hope that regardless on your adventure you have a strong harness and that beauty is revealing even in rubbish and banana peeling accompanied by a calm that is endless . what a shame,
a crying shame,
that we can so easily become unbalanced,
ignoring our shattering bodies’ talents
whilst grooming our shining mane.

Nevertheless, I hope that regardless
on your adventure you have a strong harness
and that beauty is revealing
even in rubbish and banana peeling
accompanied by a calm that is endless .
