Caption: "Man is the most insane species. He worships an invisible God and destroys a visible Nature. Unaware that this Nature he’s destroying is the God he’s worshiping."
~Hubert Reeves

We live in two worlds. Both contrasting each other simultaneously.
We talk about environment conservation, we talk about nature preservation but what do we do ? This is what we do. We kill nature for buildings, but we create these lakes to maintain an ecosystem. We kill our birds but we help their migratory cycle. We cage our animals, but we build habitats to protect them.

One instant I see an Owl lying cold on the road the other I see a majestic Squacco Heron. One instant, I see a bare tree with flying shadows, the other I see lush canopies creating fairy tales. One Instant, I see a monotonous caged horse and the other I see a vivid butterfly sanctuary.

Everyday we see such contrasts weaving a pattern in our lives. These are the two worlds, but we choose the world we live in.
