Early morning in Changthang region of Ladakh Himalaya in winter. I saw a cloud of dust and later i listen sound of bell, a flock of pashmina was there on other side of wooden bridge. I was curious and they were too. we kept waiting for each-other who will cross bridge first. I did not want to stuck up in traffic jam.
Finally a lady shepard appeared and goats could gathered courage to cross bridge. First question I was asked what the hell are you doing in such winter in remote area ? Want to die ? and after little anger on me, I was offered tea and I must say it was one of the best tea I ever had in life.
I dont think so any modern schools can teach us such simple way living life.
"My yaks, sheep and goats are better than boxes of money, with my cattle I feel my life is going just fine. I'm not educated so I'll never get a high powered job. Herding yaks is all I know and is what I will do for the rest of my life. I'm proud to be a herdsman . I'm so lucky to have a job I love the most.
My life is just fine, I live in mountain, just fresh pure air, water and food, that's all we need to be alive. Try to be with them few days if possible and learn way to live life in right way."
