Ancient mind, ancient idea

Ancient time
Ancient mind
Ancient idea
amazingly scientific

I was small. i run from one corner to another corner of yard from morning to evening. Normally it wouldn't be matter with season. child's leg always happy with unlimited jump here and there. Always on holiday mood. think everyday is Saturday. play with whatever around. climb the tree whatever possible. pick the any fruit no matter ready or not. childhood time moving just like this.

Every day when i am playing in corner of yard or around, my grandma always hurry me to come to eat and go school. she didn't have watch. Her watch was sun and sun light or shadow of the sun in day. I always used to wonder how could she knows the time to go school.

Every night her watch was moon and stars position. There were not toilet inside home. Every time went out for pee or wake up and went out to check stars position and decided the time for wake up. Even if some one born in mid night, they went out to check the stars position and guess the birth time. what a mountain village i was born. What a fairly tale story i witness.

Now, when i go out the take night shot in Himalaya, Every time that story come in mind.  A boy who grew up with stars moon and sun's story. Same boy can take a pictures of sun, moon and stars now. Hope to walk on sun moon and stars one day. Keep dreaming. Never give up.
