What are the benefits of living in a high rise apartment



Birds Eye View Of Meghdutam Park next to home


Having lived on ground floor for 25 years in South Delhi amidst greenery all around me, coming to live on 10th floor in Suburbs wasn't easy for me.    However one of my Terrace balcony facing huge 32 acres Meghdutam Park has showed me life from bird's eye view and what a delight it has been.  

Walking in park has its own advantages but living on a high rise facing a huge park is definitely a boon.   

For me its a place to enjoy Sunrise in morning and moon rise in evening. Amazing sight to enjoy with a cup of tea in hand and watch skyline with birds flying high and low during daytime and shimmering lights and stars at night.  Latest edition is view of two separate Metro train routes that I see passing on both ends of parks.   

I take my time to to be ME, sitting in my terrace, by simply enjoying and grasping magnificence of vast nature of the Huge expanse of green in park. 

Sometimes I count innumerable flower colors besides different shades of green leaves sprawling all over. 

Sometimes I close my eyes and count number of sounds coming from park - yoga laughter and clappings, kids playing, birds chirping, koyal cooing, soft wind blowing. 

Inside home, life is very very closed and limited in family only. Looking at park, beautiful eye soothing colors of nature, my thinking expands. 

I realise there are so many lives in this park. Each plant, flower, bird, Bee, butterfly, tiny insects and ants - all are breathing life and we humans are also just one amongst them - the nature's creation. 

If we consider us as separate, we become closed and limited. But If we consider us as a part of ALL THAT IS, we are infinite and powerful.
