When I was small and alone at home sometimes used to look at ant holes in our garden and see what they are doing and upto, I was think to myself what a wonderful world, when again I see this I get the same thinking, yes I think to myself what a wonderful was it that time Ceylon now Sri Lanka.

So many things have changed, but so much is still over there.. to be discovered if your eyes can see and your ears can still listen... to the voices of this people, the fauna and all these sounds of their island.
