dear christmas friends,
i just recveived this email and thought i would share. It is amazing how we learn from our families and how important it is to pass down from generation to generation our own learning. What do you think? Read the short intro in this email; then watch the short video.
Living bridge
we should all be leaving something in nature for the future of our
children other than a debt, are you? Watch what these people are doing
for their children............
Mehgalaya is a tribal kingdom in assam. It is jammed between bangladesh
and bhutan. It is near shillong, the capital.
See the photos of the area under shillong on the internet - very
beautiful. Cheerapunji is a town near by that gets the highest rainfall
in the world!
Absolutely amazing!
The most successful execution / construction of living bridges with a
life span of many centuries in one of the most remote parts of the
world. Man making nature work for him.
I couldn't comprehend what they meant by a living bridge until i
watched this.
Quite a unique concept for folks who have limited technical education,
but seemingly have sufficient common sense to survive. No civil
engineering is involved at all.
