         Many of us take life without taste and imagination.  *****      Can flowers talk? Is unspoilt nature a place of miracle? Are weed flowers useless to the human sense and sensibility? Are roadside flowers beautiful? Are wild flowers pretty? Are meadow flower therapeutic? Not many people ask these questions.  I did.  And so the flowers spoke to me.   ***** The Secret World of the Mysterious Garden of Nature      Very few people take solitary walks into a lonely jungle path, or a garden full of weeds  or simply along an old deserted old road. Due to this reason, only a handful realise that the whole world belongs  to the Garden of Nature!  And for you readers:    1.  Do you  agree that wild flowers can enrich our sight, mind and soul?     2.  Do you feel the life energy of the tiny creepers, shrubs, berries and flowers that exist in the wild? ...

It was only in 2018 I taught  my students a listening exercise and the topic was about 'pandemic'. In just a few months later, the corona virus attacked. Now we are really in the midst of a real pandemic! How much more practical can I be?
