Mala Narayana

I've been here in Mogalmadka Village for quite a while now. My house is number 4-62, and that is where I usually am. Damaragidda Mandal is a quiet place most days, but it keeps me busy enough. People around here know me by name. I don't have a big fancy office or anything like that. It’s just me doing what I do. Sometimes the weather gets really hot, and we just sit in the shade for a bit before getting back to work. Living and working in the same village means you see the same faces every day, which I like. You get to know what people need without them having to say much. There isn't much traffic out this way, just the occasional tractor or motorbike passing by the house. I try to keep things simple. If someone stops by, they usually find me near the front. We talk about the crops or the weather before getting down to any business. It’s a slow pace of life, but it suits me fine. I started this because I wanted to stay close to home and help out where I could. There are no big signs or bright lights here. Just a regular house in a regular village. I spend most of my mornings getting things ready for the day ahead. By evening, things quiet down a lot. It is a decent way to live and work.
