Memories planted with my father many years ago. ALNUS NEPALENSIS - Nepalese Alder

Описание: Many years back when I was in IXth standard, my father took me to plant these ALNUS NEPALENSIS in our farm just a few minutes walk from our home a day before I was to leave for my boarding school faraway from home in Uttarakhand. The memories are still so fresh in my mind how he was hopeful talking about how these plant would grow and transform this land into jungle in future..I wasn't paying much attention I thought it's just a time pass task he is indulging himself and me, as my father never like to stay idle when he is fit nor like to see us children stay idle..he always keep himself occupied all the time. But little did I knew this piece of land will actually transform into jungle for real someday.
It gives me immense pleasure to just stroll through this jungle my father has created. I love wandering around aimlessly and this time it's on one drizzly afternoon when I actually went to look out for our cattle but ended up losing myself here instead reminiscing about the past. It's just feel wonderful thinking I have been a part of creating something so wonderful.
There are still some new sapling that my father has added a year back. Someone has truly said the right time to plant a tree is yesterday and another right time is now😊
