Kerala is one of my favourite places in India. Given any chance I would always go back
there.
Last month we visited Kerala to attend a niece's wedding, in
Trivandrum. From the time we landed
right till we left, while enjoying the wedding and the time catching up with
extended family and friends, we savoured the beauty of nature.
The greenery, the swaying coconut palms, the pristine waters
of the Arabian Sea, the breath-taking sunsets, is all very healing and almost
makes you forget everything else.
I feel a quote from Anne Frank's The Diary of a Young Girl captures
this well:-
“The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy
is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quite alone with the heavens,
nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and
that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature. As
longs as this exists, and it certainly always will, I know that then there will
always be comfort for every sorrow, whatever the circumstances may be. And I
firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles.”
― Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl
So beautiful! I was lucky to have lived in Kerala for several years!
