BLURT///The habit of reading that book is still there

I find vitality in the green grass on the horizon, the smell of the soil and the animals. Ever since I was just four or five years old, I have developed such a close relationship with nature. I left the city of London and went to the village for the first time. Seeing the village, I am in a state of madness. Open wilderness all around, green field after mile after mile. When I went to the village, I first saw ducks, chickens, kids, cows - all these; Absolutely. I used to play with these 'living toys' all day long. As I mingled with them, I gradually realized that they were not really toys. These are just like us. They also have hunger, thirst, feelings. It seemed to me then that there was only one difference between humans and them, and that was that they could not talk like us. Maybe that's where my love for animals started.

My interest in animals grew after World War II. Then I went to my grandfather's house and stayed there for some time. Bookshelves were arranged in layers on the bookshelf of every house in Dadabari. The room I lived in also had a book shelf. Every morning I would wake up and get lost in the realm of books. During this time I read a lot of books written about animals. The habit of reading that book is still there. We were very prosperous at that time, but not that. My father needed to buy a motorcycle, but we couldn't afford it. I needed my own bicycle to go to school, we didn't have the money to buy one. But I loved reading books too. That's why we never stopped buying books. I used to buy old books all the time. Because then three old books would be available for the price of a new book. Even then, I could not buy all the books! Anyway, at least I didn't go down without explaining myself first. Whenever I had time, I would go to the library to read books for free. I would get lost in the deep jungles of Africa after reading all the travel stories. At that time I decided on my own, I will go to mysterious Africa, I will work with animals, I will recognize and love them by seeing them.
