Explore...not only the word but a story in itself.
And I got the chance recently to explore, myself? Places? Or something else? Will decide later:).
Last week I traveled Parvati Valley, Kasol and Tosh Valley. Believe me the beauty of this place can't be described in words. The energy is so pure, the water is clean, and the wind is so fresh.
First days was quite busy with co-travelers, the second was quite interesting when I refused to go to Malana Village for trekking with the group and decided to stay one more day in Kasol alone.
This was the first time I was all alone, was roaming around here and there. I was feeling so relaxed, sometimes scared too.Than I started walking, walking and walking.
Reached riverside, like the Music of the waves of the Parvati River is calling me. I was sitting there and was listening the music of the waves, watching whirl and twirlof the water. Than I saw a lady with her Daughter (Varsha) were sitting there at the riverside too.
I started talking both of them. The lady was a farmer and her daughter was studying. She had one more son who was also roaming around there with his friends.
After the sometime when our conversation was over, they took me to their village Chalal.
We crossed a damaged bridge (which was dangerous too) with short steps slowly we crossed it. The street was quite beautiful side by side of Parvati River, less crowded, full of greenery, fresh air with the music of the waves will spell you bound.
On the way I tried to catch the beauty of the mountains, valley in my phone camera. It was 20 minutes' walk to Chalal village from Kasol. We three were having good time like old friends. Then we reached Varsha's house in the village.
The small house between the valleys was looking beautiful. Nearby some field of Potato and vegetable were also there. There was apple trees all around the house.There was green grass (or something else I don't know) outside the house. I lay down there for some time and fall asleep. After sometime I woke up, watching the sky, and mountains like they are talking to me and greeting me. It was the best time of my trip to Parvati Valley.
I came back than visited Gurudwara Manikaran. Trust me the food of the Langar is the best specially the Curry, I had two big bowls:) . It was 4:20 in the evening I came back to the hotel. And my group was also returned from the trekking and we left to our next destination.
The experience of that day will always be with me. The fragrance, the energy and memories will always be in me.
Dear Friends, world is so big and beautiful but time is less. Go find your place, try to listen your heart, It will show you the right way always.
Go meet the new people, make friends, and collect memories. It will make you refresh throughout your life.
