THE
FLOWERS OF NAIR
(This small piece of
article was written by me on February 2020, in the National Academy of Indian
Railways- a premier institution housed in the remarkable Pratap Vilas Palace,
Vadodara. It is the alma mater of the Group A Railway Officers and always holds
a special place in the hearts of all railway officers.)
The National Academy of Indian Railways (NAIR) has many illustrious laurels to its credit, but what makes it stunningly beautiful, pleasant, calm and serene, is the pristine flora and the lively fauna. The place is so mesmerizing and enchanting, where you can witness nature trying to communicate to you and engage you. All the morning walks towards the Rajabaug are accompanied by the gentle breeze of the tall guardians and the faint sounds of their rustling leaves. Lucky are you if you witness the showering of old foliage leaves from any of the magnificent trees.
Amidst the daybreak and chirping voices of the birds, everyone rushes to
the iconic buildings in NAIR. But what you miss is the little flowers greeting
you and making your days colorful and happy. Howsoever tired and stressed we
are at the end of the day, just two minutes of admiring the flowers can pull us
back to the lively and meaningful process of life.
Be it the bright red hibiscus, which attracts all the attention among
the green leaves, or the simple Vinca Rosea, the radiant bougainvillea the
elegant shoe flower, the cute marigolds, and classy chrysanthemums, they all
remind you to live your life beautifully and happily, as you are also a life
created by the almighty to do the same.
These petite flowers and plants also convey us the message, to stay
strong and firm like the roots, arise and scale heights like the stem and
gently blossom into happiness like the flowers. So, friends whenever you tread
across these neat little roads of NAIR do greet these little stars on the
ground, which makes our lives beautiful.
