Dharavath Manjula

I am Dharavath Manjula and I live and work here in Mondrai Girini Thanda. My house is number 4-14. Being in Kodakandla, Jangaon, we are a bit away from the main city noise. It is a nice area where most people are involved in agriculture or small local trades. I started this because there was a need in our community. I spend most of my day managing the daily tasks here. It’s not a huge operation, just something I handle from my home. The air is fresh out here in the Thanda. I’ve lived in this part of Jangaon all my life. People stop by quite often to see what’s going on or to get help with small things. I don’t use any fancy computers or anything; I keep track of things in a notebook. It’s easier that way for me. Sometimes the weather makes things a bit tough, especially when it rains a lot, but we manage. My neighbors are good people and we all look out for each other. I keep things very simple here. There’s no need for big speeches or anything like that. I just do my job and take care of my family. It’s a humble way to live but I’m used to it. Every day is pretty much the same, and that suits me just fine. I like the rhythm of life in our village.
