Adaptive living!













The corona infection is a pandemic now.  Over ten thousand people lost their lives due to the corona infection. The fifteen months old congress government in Madhya Pradesh fell yesterday because 22 MLAs resigned from the party.  There is a regular fall of prices in the stock market globally. There is a 'lock down' for over two weeks in many cities, international travel is blocked; travel between states of Kerala and Tamil Nadu is blocked in India; schools and colleges are closed... four people who were responsible for the Nirbhaya incident seven years ago were hanged yesterday! Our sorrows and woes are too many!

So it was a pleasure to watch this squirrel. It moved about between branches searching for its feed of honey. Its body posture was full of adaptations to fetch its food!It overcame inaccessibility by adapting its body movements. 

There is a sense of unsettlement all around!

But flowers still bloom and flowers have plenty of honey for bees, honey suckers, squirrels, etc.

We still live in a world, which sustains life of all its inhabitants!

Let gloom fade away! Let hope and prospects be our optic!

I felt uplifted by watching this squirrel!  It received what was being provided!

Humans are sustained by hope alone!
