The walk to Gonadeniya on a beautiful morning - My Actifit Report Card: February 25 2024

Hi my loving Actifiters,

How are you friends? I hope you have a great time this weekend. Today is Sunday. Therefore, I decided to take a walk in a beautiful village this morning as I am off duty. It was after a long time to go to the village where my mother-in-law's house is.

Yesterday evening, my wife and I decided to leave this trip at around five in the morning. But due to the extremely dry weather these days, it was a little late to wake up in the morning. Therefore, it was decided to leave this journey around 7 am.

Due to the absence of rain, even the earth is very hot these days. Therefore, it is a matter that causes a very tiring condition even for our body. However, this morning in the middle of the hot sun, we used the Southern Expressway that turns from Unawatuune to Udugama.



Since it was a Sunday and it was early morning, there was no traffic on the highway. However, I found it very peaceful even in the midst of the hot sun. Even the beauty of nature has decreased a little these days due to the decrease in the amount of water available to the leaves of the trees. Although Sri Lanka was a self-sufficient country in the past, nowadays many food items are imported from abroad. The reason for that is because of the wrong decisions taken by some politicians at that time. As a result, many vegetable and food crops have already disappeared from Sri Lanka. Paddy industry can also be considered as one such industry which is being destroyed. Although the rice industry is widely spread in Sri Lanka these days, it appears that it has decreased a little. With the decrease in rainfall, many paddy fields are close to destruction.


With crop losses, many agricultural owners have abandoned the rice industry. Due to this, it is seen that weeds have spread a lot in many rice paddies. No matter how remote the destination, I was keen to stay here for a while and enjoy the charm and peacefulness of nature. That's why I stopped at this place for a while and listened attentively to the peacefulness of the surrounding temple and the sweet sounds of the birds.


Udugama city is a beautiful city with beautiful views surrounded by mountains. We could see several mountain ranges in the immediate vicinity of Udugama city. My mind was thrilled to see the surrounding environment shining green from them. Due to the widespread spread of the palm tree in these areas, many large trees have been destroyed, although the green color seen in the mountain ranges has remained the same. In fact, this is an injustice to the environment. Nature is bound to punish people for such misdeeds. As humans, we should be obliged to protect the surrounding environment as well as all the objects belonging to nature. Besides, it is our responsibility to inherit it for future generations.


When walking through this area, the mind and body feel very cool because the road is full of big trees on both sides. Biodiversity value is high in such an environment full of green plants. So, people should constantly work to protect such environments.


It is a highway with sharp bends, so one should drive here more carefully while driving. But when walking, it doesn't feel so promising. Because of being able to travel while experiencing the beauty of nature.

All the walks done in the morning have the ability to enjoy the beauty of nature. There is also an opportunity to listen attentively to the melodious sounds of birds that add decoration to nature. This walk gave me an opportunity to avoid many stressful situations in my mind. Another beautiful thing that adds beauty to nature is the flowers that bloom in the forests. Although such flowers do not have a special fragrance, they add beauty to the environment. It is our responsibility to constantly protect such ecological zones with biodiversity.
