Warriors of Vanam

Early years of human population, has now evolved to an Exaggerated Entity. This is a sign of Eradication of other beings due to the disrespect, egocentric nature towards the environment and living creatures. 

Early humans were respectful and showed gratitude towards everything around them, the sun, moon, trees, animals and soil because they used to live together with them and understand their own life processes. They provided, protected the forest and then expected nature to fill their sources. But now we just expect things for us by destroying the nature. Most of the jobs now are done to have a satisfactory salary. But the real job has a phenomenal purpose for it. Undoubtedly, Frontline workers of the Forest department fulfill that purpose impeccably.

The first question which quizzed me was ‘ Despite of having so many jobs of  adjustable conditions and good salary why did they choose to be a front line worker? 
 
The answer which I heard was ” We love to live in  the forest”. This phrase is enough to know how fantastic they are!!
 
“Many of us like to walk in the forests, but they walk for the forests”. Everyday they watch specific assigned regions by patroling for many hours in a day. They wander with wonderful observation that makes them present to all the elements in the forests.
 
“Many of us are fearful of darkness”, but they deal and drive themselves in the darkness of the forest to detect the movements of species .They inspect the whole night, to ensure that the species especially the elephants do not enter out of the buffer area. With just a single charged torch, they observe the movements of animals throughout the night.
 
“Many of us cannot sit idle for more than an hour on a chair”, but the watchers of the forest stabilize themselves on a tall heightened tree for more than 8 hours to inspect the forest fires.
 
“We feel discomfort by the presence of dead animal”, but they involve in performing postmortem everytime when needed despite of having any medical knowledge that they acquired naturally.
 
“We need a constant companionship”, but they have constant cut off with their relations for many months.
 
We all are earning for the well being of our loved ones. Although they don’t earn much for their families, they are the most eligible for forest blessings. We should value their efforts and respect them. Their work is Laborious, but they do it with love.
 
Respecting and understanding the essence of every little element in the forest, front line workers have this nature of being.
 
“Fabulous force of front line workers are needed by and for the Forest.”
