It was raining during my visit to some IDPs villages. The IDPs were happy with the rain and things were all green.
I then asked them "Should we have only rainy season ?" They smiled and said "No, should not". Then again, I asked "Why?" They said "We should have all seasons. We have to past the drought of summer so that we can enjoy the rain. We also have to past the flood of rainy season to greet the winter too". That is the life circle and we learnt how to live so do our children."
I realize that with their local wisdoms, the IDPs know how to live with other people, nature and super nature in sustainable ways.
With new surroundings at their new homes, I hope their local wisdoms will be applied for their living too. Even the living standard at the new homes may not be as good as the former homes, but I do hope !
