Trail Blazers are a fiery brand that leave a mark with wet wonders.Ones who don't give up easily and provide energy for life.
We, a team of seven, decided on this title as we felt we'd work with the zest of lightning to meet deadlines and light up our site with information, pictures, interviews, animations, world views, jokes, entertainment and anything below the sun.
We relate to rain that descends from heaven above as an agent of God to replenish life on earth.
In India, rain is as significant as God, as it is the source of livelihood and bread for the farmer and agriculture is the main occupation of the common man in India.
The south east Asian nations have a rainy season or a monsoon season. This is an integral part of every human in these parts.
Right from a child of three who sings rain songs,'Ye re ye re pausa ,tula deto paisa,paisa jhala khota,paus ala motha'
(In Marathi) - where a child pleads with the rain not to fall as he wishes to play and bribes it (rain) with a penny for not falling) but the rain comes and he believes his coin is fake, or the world famous- 'rain rain go away come again another day, little Johnny wants to play'..The rain is known to little children ( but not its use obviously).
Teenagers love to get wet in the rain, school children love to get wet in the rain, lovers enjoy sojourns in the rain, middle age people don't mind wetting themselves in the rain once in a while,the old and aged have their own memories of rain.So rain is significant to every one in India and most of all, the farmer prays for it to fall !!
But, in the present scenario of the world,our country India and town, Pune, there is a lot of talk, research, media hype and news reports about the diminishing rain or acid rain and the like and problems arising due to lack or shortage of rainfall causing anxiety amongst the citizens, finding alternative solutions for water conservation,lowering of the water table,drying up of dams and other water bodies or flooding in Mumbai very recently.......thus blaming global - warming or pollution or population explosion,or industrial growth, for lack of rain.
There is a lot of myth and hype about this topic which we wish to deal with and restore faith of the citizens all over that in no way is the monsoon in India to be blamed for water shortage and as the topic RAIN is very close to every Indian Heart, we also dwell upon every aspect of the rain.
We wish our viewers happy listening, reading ,dancing and urge you to go to every page , it will be an enlightening experience indeed!
