Mountains

Whenever someone first hears of the Kashmir. Srinagar comes to our minds and this is natural because Kashmir is famous for its capital. We all may have heard of the quote that once Jahangir, the Mughal emperor said that if there is heaven anywhere in the world its in Kashmir. and true he was according to me. I have been to a handful of places out of my hometown and most of them are in the mountains and i think that this is so that i am so fond of mountains. They are something that signifies many things in our daily lives and incorporate those in our ideas reflected by our religions. One of them being the enormity of them. We as humans are mere creatures compared to mountains. Whenever we want to say something motivational, referring to the problem, we usually say that this mountain can be conquered. In 2014 i wanted to visit Kashmir because of the landscapes it offers and i had bought a new camera and i was very anxious to try it out. landscapes are my first preference. That goes back to the days when i actually bought a personal computer. The wallpapers that windows showed were actually landscapes and i wanted my desktop to look as beautiful as it can be so i would look for beautiful landscapes and this made my interest in the landscapes. Now most of the landscapes as we see are made in the mountains. Even when i was in junior school, the only landscape that we drew looked something like this.



It was surreal to see and to think of such a place . Quite, away from all the disturbances of the city life. I still think of this picture at nights and dream of the silence that it offers. the chirping of the birds and the soft and warm rays of the sun awaking the landscape from the deadly cold of the night. Everything seems to come to life. Once you enter the mountains, the vibes become very different, its like you become free. You can be anything you want to be, behave anyhow you like away from the eyes of the society.

So go to the mountains and feel yourself.

Much more coming related to my stories in the mountains. Stay tuned.
