Gonds - The Indian Tribals

Excerpts from interview of one the Gonds :

Q. Why the Gonds - The tribals are associated with Maoism
A.  Extremely poor, illitracy,government neglect, they eat twice a day that also with imli- jor(Tamarind soup) or with just water and salt.
Q. Their needs ?
A. Schools, roads, electricity, and drinking water.

Every tribal home has atleast two dozens trees .They donot cut trees but plant them . Their is no dowry system,no saas bahu disputes.
Lets learn some lessons from them.

My Personal fundas :
Friends, Is it possible we can cut down on our food as per our body requirement/weight, avoid forrrrrcing our guests to eat more instead feed the poor who are short of nutritious food ?
Instead of throwing a big party of all junk food which we regret the next day , go in for all fruit party so that the next day we are all healthy and vibrant.
Lets stop this show off business and be realistic to ourself.Lets do it friends.

Health tip the month :
Drink sattu(Flour of roasted grams) in summers, I have started this summer hope you will too enjoy great taste of it with lime water.
Drink home made juice of water melon or just cut and eat with family.
