It was a very beautiful and radiant morning. That day, I had planned to take my mango harvest to the neighboring town. I arrived a little late but with immense joy, as I thought I would have a successful sale. But it was the opposite; I didn’t make any money, and most of my harvest was ruined because people preferred to buy imported and spoiled fruits, letting our traditions die, one of which is helping each other.
