Entrapped......!!!!




I was out for my walk in the morning and every time i cross the church area , i would notice this retention wall cracking up..... All along i thought may be the cement was falling apart, till this morning i stood here for a long time and noticed that the wall was actually cracking up because of the roots of the Eucalyptus trees . The wall was built around the trees and its roots were all entrapped under the cement wall. I found it quite cruel on our human part....trees are after all living things and have feelings too and they grow by the minute like us......I could imagine the roots under the wall trying to spread out its branches and not being able too.....i could almost feel the suffocation. Well humans , can we be a little more compassionate towards our environment.....!!!!
